Tragic setback for King Ranch filly at Belmont Park
Trainer Buddy Hirsch endured a harsh blow when a promising Dr. Fager mare from Equal Venture snapped a hind leg and was humanely destroyed after an accidental misstep during a routine workout at Belmont Park. The loss deprives Hirsch of a likely debut under King Ranch colors and saddles his spring successes with a somber note.
