I saw a horse through the binoculars bolt from a post parade and knock down a pop machine at River Downs!That horse was probably freaked out because of the dust storm from all those old charcoal grill ashes they put on that track:p

Hope this one is ok . They caught him at the ramp to the highway . That could have been awful . I can't imagine .

Appears he wanted more distance....

Glad he's alright.

Its important to know. This horse only has one eye.

A young horse with one eye , running in fear towards the highway .His connections must have been mortified .
He was difficult to handle during the entire race . Maybe this is not the vocation for him.

Was there when it happened. Thankfully he is ok with a few bumps and scrapes. Hats off to those who helped to coral Joseph. Could of been much worse if he would of made it to I-75. Thankfully there were no auto accidents while he was roaming around. He was transported back to the Turfway backside in the equine ambulance.
