I thought it was a joke when I first read it, but anything you could make up wouldn't be nearly as ironic as this.

The big question is, if Hillary does finish second, are they going to have to 'put her down' after the race as well?

I do feel bad for the horse, but as anyone who has ever owned and worked with horses can tell you, things like this happen some times. Heck, things like this happen with athletes in any sport human or animal.
