He has a displaced fetlock and is certainly done racing. They were hoping he'd be able to survive per TVG.

Glad he went out a winner. This horse always outruns his odds.
I just hope he will survive his injury

He's got circulation so that's a good sign. I hate to be a party pooper, but hopefully he doesn't have to deal with laminitis during his recovery. It's just so incidious. Can't assume anything even after a successful surgery. Best wishes to him and his connections. Fingers crossed that it's all forward progress from here on out.

More details on the situation. Yikes, 50/50 after the surgery. I'm happy they're happy since that's better than having the odds decidedly against you, but it's still not the most comforting stat.
