Title: Aqu Spill
Post by: APny on March 18, 2012, 04:37:50 PM
I have to give a shout out to Maggie Wolfendale who once again proved she knows what she\'s looking at.  She said Mob Wife didn\'t look good in the paddock.  The horse went down in the stretch and left Dominguez in the hospital.  So I ask, if she could see the horse was off....where are the vets????  I saw 4 horses get vanned off the inner today...its scary.

Yesterday, she said she didn\'t like how a Romans\' firster looked in the paddock.  He wound up getting scratched at the gate.  She knows her stuff.  Maybe the vets should be wired into her comments.

Dominguez said his horse tired and fell. Aqueduct surface been slower than normal since the rash of breakowns.

Maggie great,does not comment on soundness but rather demeanor,physical appearance.Vet on the track along with jockey responsible for pre race soundness going to post.There is also a paddock vet observing the horses being saddled for soundness.
