it was a non displaced fracture. we're not talking an injury like barbaros, or charismatics where you saw a bobble, etc. things like this take time to detect.
it's normal for an injury like this to show up the next day. horse can be just a little 'off', or a bit of heat, some filling, etc.
keep it in mind if you ever go horse shopping...walk them, trot, canter, the whole nine yards... and then go back the next day to see if they're lame. so often it doesn't show up til much later. you know, like if you exert yourself, feel fine. hours later take a seat, get up to get a beer and you're stiff as hell....same thing with this.
