Another horse has died since Santa Anita opened its meeting on Dec. 26. River Derby, the 27th horse to die since the meet opened, sustained a catastrophic shoulder injury while training and was euthanized after an unsuccessful surgery.
More than two dozen horse deaths have been reported since Dec. 26 at Santa Anita Park, leaving the racing industry in a quandary.
River Derby, an unraced 2-year-old bought in March for $50,000 at a sale in Florida, fractured a shoulder while galloping, according to his trainer, Ruben Gomez. Gomez said the horse was sent to Chino Valley Equine Hospital because he was told the clinic has the best specialist in regard to River Derby’s type of injury.“I am so sad,” Gomez said. “I ride my horses every day and I get so attached to them, especially my babies.”
