Fw: [RC] [RC] Big Brown's Bent Shoe - Dot Wiggins


Thanks for forwarding the link for these pics.
 
I had heard that something like this may have happened to Barbaro, there were supposed to be some photos, but never found them.

Sure looks like a wise jockey who felt something "just wasn't right" may well have prevented injury to a really great horse--but what a heartbreaker!

Here are some great pics of Big Brown breaking from the gate showing how is rear shoe probably became bent.  It’s speculated that this was the cause for him being pulled up in the race.
