From DRF (Friday's form):

Necessary Hero, an unraced 2-year-old colt by Cozzene, was euthanized on Wednesday after suffering a sesamoid injury after a workout, [trainer John] Sadler said. Necessary Hero had finished a half-mile workout in :49.80 seconds when he was injured.

Necessary Hero is the second horse to be euthanized after suffering an injury during morning training on Del Mar's Polytrack synthetic surface. Four horses have been euthanized as a result of injuries suffered during racing or training on turf. Last year, there were 18 horses euthanized as a result of injuries suffered during racing or training at Del Mar.
