    That poor horse. Laminitis is a bad sign.

    I can't even imagine what this is all like for the people close to Barbaro and for Barbaro himself. It breaks my heart, yet inspires me...to see an animal fight so hard to stay alive.

    This is my favorite video tribute to Barbaro. It shows all his races and what an amazing horse he is. I can't stop thinking about him. Lots of prayers going out to Bobby. He'll always be a champion to me no matter what..

    Bobby hasn't given up yet, and I won't give up on him either.

    This is so sad. In the article I read at noontime the Doctor said Barbaro's
    chances were not good at all.They said " it's a long shot".

    Here is a Transcript of the Press Conference for anyone who would like to know more details. Haven't heard any new news since the Press Conference. All the articles floating around out there right now are taken from this.

    What makes this even more tragic is that it's the good leg that's affected.
    The break was actually getting better.
