He was 8/5 in a $50k claimer down the hill. Crossed the dirt and kind of suffered a meltdown and jumped the inside fence.
In his previous race, in February, he bled and was pulled up and vanned off.
Anyone know if he and jockey Aaron Gryder are OK?
Taikun at SA today (4/1)?

Gryder is fine and Taikun bled again . . . . other than bleeding he's fine too.
That horse needs to find a new career . . . . . . . .
**addenda to above, Aaron Gryder's pants were covered with blood. Two more bleeding events and the horse is banned from racing in California.

Yes, imported last year and in the barn of Ron McAnally. I have to assume he was shipped here because he is a bleeder . . . . . correct??
