A 4-year-old gelding has died after suffering a racing injury at Los Alamitos Race Course, state horse racing officials reported this week.
Mr Favorite Jess finished last in Saturday’s sixth race. The official race chart says he was “bumped start, crowded/steadied midway, equine ambulanced.”
“The horse sustained an injury just past the finish line. Jockey pulled up right away and dismounted but stumbled shortly after and lost the hold of his mount,” California Horse Racing Board spokesman Mike Marten told City News Service. “The horse ran loose and fell in the backside. Injuries required euthanasia.”
Mr Favorite Jess had 20 races in his career — all at Los Alamitos — including two first-place finishes.
He is the eighth horse to die from a racing or training injury at the Cypress track this year.
