Hope the 3rd opinion he's seeking has better news...bet the connections of Paddy are not happy about this...I know a lot don't care for Kent, but this is a real bummer.
Hope he isn't out too long...bad time of the year to get hurt.

Kent has an interesting personality but the man can ride. Wish him the best.

I'm guessing you've never actually wagered on a horse race, right?

You'd be guessing WRONG :p

We have a rider here who is his spitting image. I told him that in the Spring and all year he has just grunted back when I say hello until July when he stated, quite frankly, "Hey I heard you pal Kent failed a breathalyzer test at Woodbine."

They said he'll be out about 3 weeks...coulda been way worse.
