MAJOR EFFORT BEING MADE TO SAVE TWIX AFTER INJURY
Twix, who finished second in Thursday’s third race and was vanned off with a fractured left knee, was being cared for this morning in the barn of trainer Jeff Metz, who claimed the 5-year-old Argentine-bred mare from A.C. Avila.

“All efforts are being made to save her,” Jennifer Metz, the trainer’s wife, said this morning. “Jeff slept on it and decided we needed to try and save her,” she added. Jeff Metz was overseeing the rest of his string at Hollywood Park this morning.

The mare was standing in her stall this morning being cared for by a groom.
I didn't see any further reference to her after I scrolled up to read some that I missed. Turns out she was euthanized in September 2008 after complications from the multiple knee fractures.
