The owner of Colt's Secret,
Taminy Doucet, apparently sold the horse to a Jesse Wimberly shortly after Colt's last race on Saturday the 10th. A couple of days later Colt's Secret was in Dominique's Livestock Auction in Opelousas, a notorious meat auction. Contacted by phone today, Wimberly said, "
Yes, I wish I could have found a good home for him, but I just have too many..."
That statement, of course, begs the question of why he would buy another horse if he already has too many. A cynic might suggest that Doucet conspired with Wimberly to unload the horse for her so she could avoid sanction by Delta's no-slaughter rule, such as it is.
And I'm a cynic.
