Straight Story

Postby Swaps1955 » Sun Jul 01, 2012 2:39 pm

I've been following Straight Story for some time and see that he was pulled up and vanned off in a Gr.3 at Woodbine today (July 1st). Does anyone have any information about how he is?

From Thoroughblog...
"STRAIGHT STORY broke down in his left fore. A cast-boot was put on his leg and he was vanned off.
Early reports this morning say the Giant’s Causeway horse, an earner of $736,000 is going to be okay."

He said that he was injured but they were able to save him. He will be heading to stud in Japan.

Thanks so much for the information (and for following through on my post of a few days ago.)
