Horrible Spill in Solano 5th Today

Postby zinn21 » Fri Jul 24, 2009 2:56 pm

Just occured. Big Red Tate broke down (broke left foreleg) Chad Schvaneveldt jumped off and appeared that a trailing horse stepped on him. Early report-he stood up and walked off the track.

Glad that Schwanni walked off; that is all he needs right now with his pancreas problems. Poor Big Red Tate...:(

Ahh, I watched the reply. Couldn't help myself. Horrible. Just watched one break down at del mar in the 7th tonight too. It didn't look good. Almost certain he had to be euthanized.

Rest in peace Big Red Tate . . . . . . . . . you had a racing heart.
