Awesome, and yeah. QR is fast, he was third favorite going into the breeders cup, but he was so geared up to race that day, they couldn’t get him into the chute. So the judges tried blind-bagging him, at which point he freaked out, damn near crush a judge between himself and part of the chute, and cut himself pretty badly in the process. Enough such that he’s out of racing until next season.
Ow. That hurts (on so many levels). At least with the trotters they have a running gate, which makes it easier on them.
The other thing that makes it cool is that it’s kid-friendly. They can’t hang out in the parlor so much, but we can bring them in and take them down on track-level.
/thought I had some pics but I can’t find them at the moment 😛
