This is so unusual at the Fairgrounds, obviously we have a few tragedies every year but this many in such a short time is highly unusual, coupled with the quarantine it's like a dark cloud is hanging over Gentilly.....

Dimestore Dolly after winning the 6th today at Tampa, something went wrong. Don't think I've ever seen a horse run on three legs like that. Hope she's OK.

I read elsewhere she fractured a shoulder. This leaves little hope, sadly .

I was OTB in Port Allen just in time to see that debacle at PENN.....not what I wanted to see.....I can say that there really wasnt a big delay on the track afterwards so that may have boded well or as well as could be under the circumstances.
