The Tracker started following this horse’s course back when it had heroic surgery and should stick with it, so here’s more and it’s not such good news. Vets tell the Baltimore Sun’s Paul McMullen that the Kentucky Derby champ has “catastrophic” laminitis in his left hind foot, away from the side that shattered in the Preakness. McMullen reports a decision to put the horse down could come within a day. The USA Today’s blog-type update page says that’s just wild speculation. AP has the horse fighting for his life.
