Track samples were taken Thursday morning about every 16th of a mile at Santa Anita and have been sent for testing in hopes of solving the mystery of 21 horse deaths since Dec. 26.
It’s important to get the horses out of the barn area for exercise beyond walking the shed row, which they’ve been restricted to since the track closed. Some trainers have decided to take their horses on the roads in and around the barn area, but doing it under tack, with equipment and a rider aboard.
“If they open this up on Friday, you’ll see a lot of the fillies tie up — they’ll get tight in the muscles and they’ll get real short because of nerves and the fact they haven’t done anything in a few days. You might see an odd case of colic here and there. If these things occur, the reason is because it’s been closed.”
