Never underestimate the healing power of green grass ☘️and sunshine ☀️ for a sick, hospitalized horse. This TB has a rare bacterial endocarditis of his heart valve but is really responding to medical therapy and loved this treat of a morning outside (despite the IV catheter 👩🏼⚕️ )
GREAT news!!This is one pic is what it is ALL about for those of us working on aftercare issues on racing-thru the safety net set up with @NewYorkTHA,this TB recieved donated knee surgery in June,rehabbed with @lisaky72@ReRunOTTB and now look-found his 2nd career life partner🥰
Alabama Stakes' contender SWISS SKYDIVER, trained by @KennyMcPeek , early this morning at Saratoga. The Alabama Stakes is run tomorrow here at the Spa.

Even for severe,salvage-type orthopedic injuries,minimally-invasive surgery has become commonplace in vet med.This TB mare had a terribly comminuted/displaced slab fx of her knee yesterday-arthroscopic repair thru tiny incisions has resulted in a very comfortable ‘now-broodmare’
Great example of preventative value of new imaging 👀 options used in collaboration in equine vet med-we sent this TB colt to @NewBoltonCenter for robot CT imaging and they found very rare early stress fx in pastern which we then repaired with single screw 🙌🏻#teamwork 🐎
SW RINALDI (Posse) surged to an allowance win at #Sartoga@TheNYRA in wire to wire fashion and geared down. He has earned $234,490 and has 3 wins a second and a third in 6 starts. We are proud of him!
This TB gelding fractured BOTH forelimbs at the SAME TIME last summer at Saratoga-both were rare/dangerous spiral fxs.Thru collaborative efforts of @LuisCastroDVM +Dr Katy Dern surgery/rehab was donated🤩!He now lives awesome life in Wyoming! #ittakesavillage#homeforeveryhorse
