#148 Does It Again

1/28/14 #148 once again rakes his injured front right heel bulb creating more blood.  About the 8th time now, though luckily the new wound was again mostly superficial.

1/29/14 I arrived to another #148 surprise.  Horse is on opposite side of fence. Must have crashed through barbed wire which might create another serious cut or injury or he jumped.  Vid shows that I want to avoid even looking at the horse for fear of what might have happened to him.

Something happens every day with this energetic dude.  Judging from their behavior looks like he was probably chased by #17 and jumped in the crisp wind and cold weather.  Cleared the barbed wire fence and the horse dodges another bullet.  Will he live to racing?

Training-- in brisk cold wind horses off.  Will do three 3f riderless springs today. 5th day of these out of 10, and then will regroup to next step. More cold coming by Accuweather.
