As someone who lived in Lexington, Kentucky, the so-called "horse captital of the world", for over five years, I've been following Barbaro's story over the past eight months. He was euthanized today, after a very long and courageous fight. I'd gotten kind of attached to the guy; he was a cute horse, and a trooper. I feel very sad for his owners, who invested so much in Barbaro, even after it became plain that his days of money-making were over. Here's a link to the Lexington Herald-Leader article on Barbaro's death:
