CYPRESS, CA — A 5-year-old gelding died after suffering a racing injury at Los Alamitos, state horse racing officials said Sunday.
“Acceleray was injured while galloping out after the (fourth) race Saturday night at Los Alamitos, requiring euthanasia,” California Horse Racing Board spokesman Mike Marten told City News Service on Sunday.
Prior to Saturday, Acceleray had 13 career races and one first-place finish, according to the industry website Equibase.
It was the first reported equine death at Los Alamitos in 2025. The Cypress track saw 18 horses die from racing or training injuries in 2024.
