    Sorry to hear about your leg!
    Questions how close are you to Santa Anita track? My uncle raced there alot and as a kid we used to fly there all the time to see his horses win the derby. He is a trainer Ron McAnally.

    And thanks, my body is a slow healer so it's going to be ugly for a while.

    not really sure to be honest, i've only been there like once or twice. I'm probably an hour our two, but i'll try to google to see if i can find how close.

    That's so cool that your uncle was a jockey. Both my horses used to be racers. My sister's horse, *the one who did this to me* used to be owned by a horse leg vet. His race name was Nate Jay, *after the owner*
    We got his papers from the rescue which was kind of cool.

    And my horse has a tatoo, and i got him when he was 3 1/2 but know nothing about his race history

    haha, that's awesome. I know my sister's horse was deffiently bred to be on the track. He has the typical thoroughbred body type, tall long and lean. And he's fast. He was at the rescue place because he had an injured stifle, so i guess that ruined his race career.

    I think that it is ok to say a 1,200 pound or more animal made you fall!
