Oh no.  When Manicomio was in the lead and broke down It was in the stretch.   The race was Nov. 25.  (You may recall my interest in the Include and Encaustic kids.)  What a shame this has occurred at Laurel;  I had no idea.  Thank you for mentioning this here.

Yes, because I mentioned his death in the Memorial thread. I hadn’t realized they had all those other fatalities.:(

 Oh no- I had no idea-- Hope they find the cause ----

This is scary. I am glad they stopped racing, hope they can find the cause and fix it

Laurel still on hold , may be able to use again Dec. 16
