WO's Wake at Noon probe results in Schickedanz ban

[Alan07]

Woodbine is conducting an internal investigation into the death of Wake at Noon, a former Canadian horse of the year who sustained catastrophic injuries and was euthanized on the dirt training track here Tuesday.

The Ontario Racing Commission had the horse sent to Guelph University, for a necropsy.

Here's some more on this tragic story:

It's a joke that people who put these horses back into training act so distraught when they breakdown.

I pulled up this thread and thought to myself...man, who resurrected a this thread, figured he had died some years ago.

Worse, what does it say about Mountaineer.

Ugh

Ugh

Mountaineer AKA Waterford Park ... nuff said. For those of you who are to young to remember or didnt know, Waterford Park was the killing fields of horse racing. As a kid I cant count how many times I saw the dead horses lying behind the recieving barn from that nights racing and the old drunk guys pulling the shoes off of them to recycle. Nothing suprises me there , they may have a new name and better purses but I cant imagine the mentality has changed much.

Just sickening

This is shameful. That horse did enough a long time ago.

I figured out what should be done with this Mr. Chicken$hit. It appears he was born in 1947. Let's make his a$$ run around the Woodbine track until he keels over with injuries. Then we can put him out of his misery.

Here is an additional story from Jennifer Morrison's blog. I think the A-hole to the left in the pic is Bruno Schickedanz himself not to be confused with Gus Schickedanz who once campaigned Langfuhr.

My son just got a pellet gun... I'm printing that picture out and letting him use it for target practice. (Of course I will cut off the rest of it )

Owner and breeder Bruno Schickedanz will no longer be allowed to enter or stable horses at Woodbine, the track's executive vice president of racing, Jamie Martin, said Friday.

"We have completed our investigation, and as far as the discussions I've had, with the various people involved, I think this is the right approach," said Martin. "The horses he has racing today and tomorrow will be allowed to run, but we are no longer accepting entries for any of his horses, and he's going to have to move his horses off the backstretch."

An Ontario Racing Commission investigation into the matter also is under way.
