Harmony lane broke her leg and was euthonized. I love horses consider i own a share in turblent descent but this really saddens me. I was watching the race and she tried to throw the jockey and went crazy before the race. They should of scratched her. She then went not even a quarter and broke down. Ransammy was unconciesous and taken to hospital. She was trying to tell them something was wrong and no one listen, This could of been avoided

Jock ok..
TORONTO, April 17 - Veteran jockey Emile Ramsammy, who was injured in an on-track spill in Sunday's ninth race at Woodbine, has been released from a local area hospital. "Emile is doing well and is looking forward to getting back in action as soon as possible," said Neal Wilson, Ramsammy's agent. "Fortunately, he didn't break anything." Ramsammy entered the 2011 campaign with over 2,100 lifetime winsComment -
If this horse normally warms up without acting up and this time was very different, someone should have been aware of the problem.If the jock rode the horse before he would have known but...
These types of calls are easy to see after the fact.
Considering scratching a horse without rock solid evidence is a lose lose situation for the trainer, stewards or vet and depending on house management and the ramifications that will result in that action, many people will ultimately question any decision in a negative light.
This is obviously a real sad story.Comment
