Yessiremychickadee was leading the first race going into the backstretch when she suffered a compound fracture of her right front cannon bone, according to a Del Mar spokesman, and was pulled up by jockey Aaron Gryder. High on the cannon bones I set both hands, intending to drag him out of the way-- my chance should not become another's chance-- but saw as I did so that he stirred weakly: the net of breath still held. Trainer Tim Ritchey and veterinarian Pat Hogan feel that the 3-year-old colt's leg requires more time to properly heal from a fractured left-front cannon bone suffered on July 21st. |
