Double-millionaire Maltese Artist, who was injured in his Molson Pace elimination on Friday night (May 22) at Western Fair Raceway, was euthanized.
The 8-year-old Artiscape-Hula Dancer gelding had rolled on the engine through panels of :28, :57 and 1:24.2 in his elimination before making a devastating break, causing interference to the field and forcing driver Jody Jamieson to pull him up at the three-quarter mark.
Very sad. I didn't realize it was as bad as it was when I watched it last night.
