I read that yesterday...and I hope that Harvatt gets kneecapped and left to try to walk on broken bones.

This is utterly repulsive. Who ever said there was no abuse needs to be fired.

[Squeaky]

Besides the cruel trainer, it is sad that no vets would testify that there was cruelty, and that the state vets would not scratch him and prevent him from running. Not even taking the bandage off? What is happening to the world?

Another article on Shandian, by one of his previous trainers, who was also trying to get him to retire him. He seemed quite the character.

My daughter sent me a news article ( she lives in the area). Farm is on Quicksburg Rd in the 2300 block.

[Flanders]

I'm pretty sure it has to be the farm Mr. Sidney was supposed to stand at in 2020. Though he disappeared and never covered a mare again. There just aren't other paddocked fields in that area according to Google Maps overhead view, the only other one has cattle. If it is, they have a secondary property that they had horses at, and A LOT of them, in the overhead Google shots(I counted well over 100 + over 50 at the property on Quicksburg Road where the paddocks were so overgrazed they were dirt lots). I wanted to add that I don't know when the Google maps photos were taken.

I hope justice is served.

For some reason I found it surprising that the body was exhumed. I thought most large animals were cremated, or at least not buried in their entirety.

A small step in the right direction from 1/ST.

“Going forward, the trainer and owner of record for any horse that last races at Gulfstream Park will be responsible for the cost of shipping a horse back to the United States if it is shipped to Puerto Rico.”
