Kentucky Derby
Sad conclusion to today's Kentucky Derby. Philly 'Eight Belles' finished in second place as an underdog (I put money on her to win at 20-1) and then went down after the finish line, having somehow broke both her front ankes. Very weird collapse....but they had to euthanize her on the spot.
Big Brown, the favourite, won the race.
