Default Bizarre beginning to Spa card

Two horses break poorly, one is still in the hands of the starter, favorite is vanned off and triple wagering cancelled because of 5 horse field. Just your typical 2006 Saratoga day!

At 1st it looked like the inside horse broke early and the gate opened and scared the horse in the next gate not to come out when they kicked it. Then Prado wins the race under wraps for fun then the horse looked all wobbly legged on the backside when they were waiting for the meat wagon.

She seemed to walk into the van under her own power. Feel bad for the connections in the winners circle though. "Meat wagon"???
