Kentucky Derby winner Barbaro was euthanized Monday in Kennett Square, Pa., after an eight-month battle to regain his health captured the hearts of America in a way that hasn't been seen in the racing world since Seabiscuit and Secretariat.
"His memory will live forever," Alex Waldrop, CEO of the National Thoroughbred Racing Association, said in a statement to FOXNews.com. "America’s compassion and love for Barbaro speak to the incredible bond that people share with thoroughbreds and our sport."
Oh good grief. They breed these creatures to be stick-legged, short-lived playthings to amuse the masses, then act like they had nothing to do with the animals injury.
Hey. Yeah you, Alex and all the Alex-idiots within earshot. Don't race the damn things if you don't like seeing them suffer to the point they need to be destroyed. I doubt the horse showed up one day with a brokendown suitcase and a heartbreaking story of how he'd like to be a Kentucky Derby winner.
