They are probably in the process of examining how they can best profit from this right now.

If I was a bookmaker, my PETA reaction betting line as to why she kicked her stall might look like this ...


Roid Rage (-180)

A prankster told NK that Gabby Saez would be her jockey next out. (+140)

i'm sure they can dig up an animal psychologist that would make the case that the fence kicking was no doubt a symptom of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder caused by use of the whip during racing.

I don't understand why people feel the need to joke around with a horse that has just passed away....
