Bonnie Brown Eyes

The jock walks away, luckily. The horse breaks her ankle and then her neck. Bonnie Brown Eyes was given one 4 furlong breeze in a month and a half prior to her break down when she was in the lead in the stretch at Hollywood Park with Garrett Gomez aboard on 11/21/09.

Should trainer Mike Mitchell be suspended, put on probation, investigated, charged with involuntary manslaughter of a horse?

This is the type of situation that cries for prior to entry/ training standards in this sport.

I was at this awful scene at Hollywood Park. Bonnie was flying down the stretch, and it turned ugly quickly. Looks like she was pushed too hard too fast. Thankfully at least the jockey will be OK.
Note: It was on 11/21/09.
