A couple of recent NYS Gaming Commission “incidents” (yes, that’s the word they use) on the Belmont training track…
D’shiner Jeans: “Horse experienced a LF fracture after galloping out the starting gate and returned to the barn lame. Trainer sent horse to clinic for surgery.” D’shiner is (was?) two and being prepped for her first race. The good news: “Rider was unharmed.”
Kerry: “Horse collapsed after bleeding caused an airway obstruction. Horse was vanned off in equine ambulance for further examination.” Kerry is (was?) four.
