Wow.......now Chrome is probably a 2-1 fav thanks to this horse not being in to take some Pletcher money.

Bad loss for the field, but since I wasn't sure what to do with him, it makes for one less complication to the race.

Unfortunate.
He had a footwork fault that may or may not be related to this.
Kind of stinks that both Constitution and Top Billing, who were both interesting horses went down with fractures this year.

Which moves Uncle Sigh into the top twenty. Not sure if that matters wagering wise.

He obviously has more horses than anyone else, so I guess it makes sense he loses more to injury. I'd like to see the percentages though.

I think this does, not so much with Uncle Sigh hitting the board, but the horrible start in the Wood and the combination of adding Blinkers. This horse may just pull a Palice Malice and try to break off a 20 second first quarter!

Why wouldnt they just say he has bucked a shin..A bucked shin is a shin fracture..Young horses soft bones and speed like this guys has, make for bucked shins.
Sorry to see this happen. I also dont understand why these guys drill the shit out of young horses.

Seems few & far between when horses had good foundations. Chrome has some foundation & I like it!

PREDICTION: Kentucky Derby won in a walkover. All other contenders sidelined. You can decide who is the winner.
