Hillary's Derby horse breaks both ankles and comes in 2nd!

[catfreak8008]

she broke down AFTER the race anyway, not during it...

[xlaura96]

Its a tragic fluke, what happened to her. But the thing is...she didn't snap her ankles because she was a filly racing against colts, its is the age. At that age, a horse has very little control over themselves, and unfortuanatly this happens very often with BOTH fillies and colts. I don't think that people should be racing horses that young at all, there not done growing yet at that age and even though they move so quickly, they are very fragile.. R.I.P baby girl :(

[ZenyattaFanatic911]

The reporters jynxed her

[Beatlegirl4eva]

Eight Belles beat all the boys except the one on steroids, in my mind Eight Belles would have one if Big Brown wasn`t on them.

[BackstretchUnderdog]

i think they shouldn't joke about a horse breaking down and dying. Have they not seen the pictures of her thrashing around wildly, trying to get up? Does the video of her crashing down to her knees, both ankles shattered, not somewhat hurt their cruel hearts? I'd spit on these kinds of people

[WesternChick101]

so sad most of the realy popular horses are well...........dead

because of brocken bones

[Swallowchllorox]

A few people out there may not know the difference between fillies/colts, mares/stallions/gelding. Fillies and colts are young horses, under 4. Fillies being female, colts being male.

At least Eight Bells was put down humanely. There are cases where horses who run 'too slow' are sold to meat men. Unfortunately, she injured herself but the bright side is that she didn't have the chance to be discarded for meat.

[CullenVampire1901]

at least she didnt have to suffer. she was such a strong filly no matter what people say. RIP eight bells. we love you

[victizzle321]

i hate horse races! i think they should be banned! these poor horses die for nothing=( i cant even watch another race from what happened to barbaro=(

[beav0614]

honestly...i cant stand horse racing

sometimes it can get cruel like beating the horse. and most horses are started under saddle way to soon and they get a sway back. i dont kno anything about racing either so say wat u want i still dont like it

[chaseyb118]

she ran her heart out and was a great horse

[joederbyvx]

poor animal

[twinkietrail]

I don't understand why the horse was killed. I have a friend who broke his legs in multiple places and lost almost half his blood, yet was still saved after he flat lined twice in the hospital. This is preposterous!

[demoteam9181]

these thorobreds are differnt from strandardbreds iv had standardbreds an they r so much sounder it takes no talent 2 race a thorobred its hard 2 keep a standarbred trotting anyways average thoro goes 12 or 13 starts a year my horse go 45 35 starts an still goin strong i hate thoros

[wyocowgrl92]

I'm not usually the kind of person that preaches animal rights and what not, but racing is cruel. The things they do to their horses and the things they make those poor Animals do. Greed and recklessness. Stupid people.

[patience1971]

Poor Eight Belles....RIP...sweetie

[Paintmare06]

It make me sick that these idiots are making all these comments about the Derby and Eight Belles when they know nothing about racing or "Belle." I know they didn't know Eight Belles would die, but that's something you don't joke about. How dare people make fun or her, alive or not. It's aimed at Hillary, but leave the horse out of it. Hillary actually had sense here, Eight Belles fought to the end like a tiger. RIP Belle. I still miss you, baby.

[no1horselover]

I hate horse racing.

Why is it in this world everything has to be the Fastest the BIggest the Strongest

Its so cruel to do this to animals.

[dcooke1989]

well if you hate it so much why did you bother to watch this video?

[tattynsmokey]

eight belles is a great she beat all 18 boys how great is she

[jawbreaker90210]

That is so sad this horse was lost. She was started too young and pushed too hard. I know I know- an all too common occurrence.

Forget about Hilary, focus on the real issue.

[RidingWithRuffian]

Well really the fact that Hillary was for Eight Belles has nothing to do with the bad luck and awful fortune with the filly. Hillary is a great person, and only betted on the horse because she thought the filly was going to win (for she was a female as well). Well if you knew anything about racing, you would know better than to think that Hillary had anything to do with the accident. It was a freak accident and omg it just happened out of bad fortune. RIP Eight Belles and good luck Hillary!!!

[davisondad]

Hillary "betted" on the horse???? I would BET that she did that right after ducking and running across that airport with the sniper fire. God I hope one of those bullets didn't hit Eight Belles!

[RidingWithRuffian]

What are you talking about??!?!?!

[FastLittleFilly]

you know... the title makes it sound like she broke her ankles durring the race, she didn't. right after she went over the finish line she broke 'em.

[musique2000]

they just shouldn't let mares compete with geldings! this is a sad and tragic thing!

[oakstorm]

What, I think its great that that filly did so well, Yes she was pushed, to the end b/c she had never ran that far befor. but running with the geldings she put them all to shame. great mare.

[Mintano]

Her breaking down had nothing to do with running against the boys. The same thing could have happened if she had run in the Oaks the day before against the fillies.

[castleguardian]

give me one founded reason why mares or in this case fillies shouldn't race against colts? fillies can be just as fast if not faster than colts, it all depends on the horse. eight bells would have broken her ankles wether she was racing against colts or other fillies, it has nothing to do with the fact that she was racing the opposite sex...

[Ruffian4Ever]

Dont know anything about racing, do you? Eight Belles was a FILLY, racing against COLTS...not geldings. Most racers are uncut males, and there wasnt a single gelding in the Derby.

[Paintmare06]

Eight Belles was a filly, not a mare. And most of the horses in the Derby are colts, not gelding. And why can't the fillies race the colts? Did you watch the 2007 Belmont Stakes?

[ghirshor]

if only the situation had been reversed with 8 belles picking Hillary and her loosing

[Paintmare06]

Tell me about it.

[MonkiesRuleEarth]

sad to lose such a great horse though, hillary should have just kept her mouth shut and the poor thing might have stood a chance

[drfager01]

hillary sucks, sorry eight belles, she killed you with her nonsence.

[drfager01]

blueguise23, good on you, because i dont know who is more delusional,that which HILLARY,or those racists down there in west virginia,lets be real all this stuff about democrats voting for MCcain if hillary does,nt get the nomination is all a crock of shit,the real truth is those poles are being run and done by repuplicans,to devide the real democratic party...Those idiots sound like they are bipolar or someshit of that nature,because if you do decide to for MCcain,the dems dont need you anyway.

[FilmForger]

These morons really think something will change if another idiot is elected. There are missing the point of a heroic horse just died for the pleasure of the same assholes who control this country. So think about that after you fill up your gas tank.

[GuidoWreslingGod]

rotfl!! now that's fucked up!! hahaha!!

[yawgmothisking]

this video owns

[sosTITANIC]

I watched the entire Kentucky Derby. I cried my eyes out when poor Eight Belles fell to the ground...R.I.P

[acchorsefreak]

That horse had heart because it never stoped even with 2 broken ankles.

[tubemeokay]

And I have one last comment on this so-called sport. These horses are mostly 3 year olds and like your children, thier growth plates are not mature for such a pounding.

There should be a law adopted to allow ONLY 5 year and older to race these races. It only makes sense, but as always money comes to the front and dam haveing to put these magnifcent Animals down. Again, what we saw at the derby was disgusting and IMOP, unessary.

RIP...Eight Bells!!! Was hard to watch. Sorry-but-truth!!!

[tubemeokay]

This horse is ten times the lady Hillary ever thought of being. I feel so sorry for this filly...eight bells. Dam shame you cant fix broken legs on horses and have to end thier lives so quickly. But it must be the truth, just sad. Ruined my Derby Day watching this and I acually won money off of Eight Bells that I will donate to charity.

RIP eight bells, you run the race of your life and went out in a blaze of glory.

Will be awhile before I bet this so-called sport ever again. Disgusting!!

[DaiMer82]

Wonderful symbolism or what?!

You're toast, Hillary. Go home!

[arcbc30]

Eight Bells was a hell of a girl- Hillary clinton is a non issue. I miss Eight Bells

[axxo702]

I hate the camera angles. No good shots of the horse breaking ankle. Gay.

[Mychaels]

Eat a Peta..

[GamecubeIsGreat]

lol

[freedomflyer1212]

i dont so much blame hilary i blame joe!

Joe Scarborough says, "Boy how embarrassing if Eight Belles pulls up lame and they have to put her down." that ass hole jinxed poor eight belles

[morganstern0]

yes his psychic powers killed the horse of course of course

[sisu212121]

ha people that believe things can get jinxed ... you know i worry about them... he is just mean for saying that

[drfager01]

fat face hillary. big barrack.

[drfager01]

The derby looks like the 2008 democratic battle for the presidential nominee ,barrack is big brown, brown and athletic,unfortunately hillary clintons campains looking more and more like this race. She better quit before she falls on her fat face.RIP eight belles.

[merrimac291]

Poor eight belles. Hillary jinxed her.

Eight Belles

RIP

[tekqs]

Aww poor horse. I hope Hillary gets euthanized as well.

[dafunkmonster]

this was in terrible taste...shame on you, msnbc...

[godspyro]

everybody who says this happened because hillary was rooting for that horse you pple need to grow up. so u might as well say everybody who was rooting for her caused it. and lets soo you run a race and die at the end. would you want to blame some random person who youve never seen?

[guckfoons]

this is a fine argument I would love to subscribe to your internet newsletter

[wehadrons]

wow! Joe is psychic. Obama wins North Carolina.

[jmbenedict]

OK--I don't care who you are--that comment was just funny!!

[ozne64]

will hillary get euthanized too when she ends the race #2?

[Runny452]

lol

[tubemeokay]

Not funny whatsoever!! can stand Hillary, but Am sure she had nothing to do with this tragic death of a beautiful racehorse who just run the race of her life.

If you want to jump some ass. Jump all these trainers of these 3year olds that run these races. The growth plate in these horses dont mature until they are 5 or older. Growth plates folks, like in your kids! Fact, but they continue to race 3 year olds because of the quickness and speed of these horses. Brutal sport! Bullshit IMOP!!

[squishym2000]

I have to agree, those people are into this sport for themselves. They could atleast wait till the horses are a little older and not pushed to they get hurt, and some cases death. Eigth Belles ran her race and she will always be remembered.

[HillaryLied]

The same happened to alot of her aquantaces that is spooky.

[BlueDiamondSaver]

support freedeom, wtf it didn't have a choice to run these horses are picked so stfu.

[tubemeokay]

As bad as I hate Hillary, her choseing this horse has nothing to to with anything. Im sure Hillary feels just as bad as the rest of us that really watches horse racing in the great state of Kentucky. Hillary couldnt of known and anybody that disses her beacuase of this tragic end is garbage. Plain and Pure garbage!! This gallant Fillie derves more than this crap.

[jsullivan80]

You people are all retarded. You all up in arms about this horse just because it happened on camera. This has been going on for quite some time. Get over it.

[supportfreedom]

this horse had a choice not to run. I dont feel bad.

[mandycat93]

it was taught to race...how would it know that it was going to get hurt. She wasn't hurt before hand. You should get your facts straight before you tell your unsupported decisions.

[Runny452]

actually, she WAS hurt before hand. The horse had prior injuries to BOTH ankles yet the jockey took the risk and this is what happened because of it.

Get your facts straight.

[morganstern0]

and everyone knew hillary was terrible before she ran and yet people still supported her MMMMMMMM SEE THE PARALLELS

[PoniFeathers]

Jockey's don't decide if the horse runds in the race....owners do.

[kidstocks]

Bad carma by hillary.

[Snicker75]

A beautiful horse dies and you crazy ass Obama supporters still think of the damn Presidential race. Pathetic!

[dgproffitt]

OK, forget the whole Hilary thing! Did anyone catch what the newscaster said just as it went to the race footage? I bet he feels like a real ass!

[nzingamina]

Hillary put a curse on that poor horse...everything the Clintons touch = death.

[greenback001]

yeah right, this wasn't fixed for the presidential campaign metaphor. Hillary wants Eight Bells and comes in second to Big Brown. The establishment is pathetic. This poor horse, Eight Bells, must have been laced with so much juice she ran her self to death just to try and squeeze a positive feeling out for Hillary. Hillary is a disgusting human. BTW, Obama sucks as well. So does McCain. The establishment sucks.

[Denaghlynn]

Again Hlary can't have had anyhting to do with the death of this filly. It's the breeders..the in breeding, the training and running of foals at just a year old...Bones just don't solid up that fast..THAT'S what's causeing the injuries. NOT a freaking poloticle candidate! How sad that you morons would shift subject off the tragic death of a wonderful athlete onto plotics. Get a dman life!!!!

[clevername333]

Eight Belles lost to a less experienced horse named Big Brown.

I love it.

[bigkyle07]

i hope the news people feel bad

RIP Eight Belles

[uscloud]

Are you guys that afraid of women? Where the hell are the MEN?

[LeeCountyArkansas]

This just in:

Jerome Zeifman, was lead Democratic counsel during Watergate.

In a recent interview, of Hillary, he said: "She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality".

Zeifman fired and refused to give her a letter of recommendation. He also said that he regrets not reporting her to bar associations.

But, Hillary had not passed the bar at that point.

Ooooops!

[nycnyc321]

You people sit on your chairs with your computer and type in some of the stupidest things I ever read. Im not in PETA but I agree, poor horses. Look what they are trained to do, they are mercialisy beaten to run faster by there jockey to run faster and faster and then they have to repeat this for the rest of there lives, until they die. What a way to treat one of g-d creatures...

[echo3rhythm]

not just fillys any horses that young....bones and muscles just arent fully developed yet.. always taking a gamble.

[aragonflyhigh]

"RIP my sweet angel~ u will forever be missed......."

~EIGHT BELLES~

[scuberblue]

What does he mean EUTHANIZE..it's not like she asked to be killed.

[newmommy413]

That's it! Poor Eight Belles, she got her name in the mouth of that evil woman. RIP beautiful.

SooN 2 B GONE!!!! YAY! Fly away Witchy Woman!!

[Swift898]

this is not about politics.... hello!!!!!!!!

[Lizardlizard189]

RIP eight belles- i think that theyre racing these horse a bit too young, i mean three year olds? Thats just over the age youre supposed to start breaking a horse to ride.

They need to wait until theyre a bit older before they race.. but i guess thats money for you.

[shiddy67]

Somebody needs to Kerrigan hillary's ankles.

Fuck you,bill.

[kelsonb12]

Does this mean they are going to euthanize Hillary?

[Ohsnapp00]

OWNED!!!!! he predicted to hahahha that sucks

[horsegirl5825]

R.i.p. Eight Belles we will never forget you.

You ran till you could not run any more.

You were an amazing horse r.i.p. Baby.

[cleanenviron]

Mrs. Clinton. We're done with Bush 1&2 and we're done with you. Retire already before America goes lame and is put down like the blessed Belle.

You're running on artificial turf and you will listen to nobody but your ego... Let "Big Brown" win and listen to your jockey when he says to stop running.

Belle didn't listen and neither will Hillary.

(The jockey tried to stop Eight Belles but she refused... until he heard a sickening "pop" and it was over.)

Is the USA next?

[gamblingaristo]

Cleanenviron,you have the right to hate mrs Clinton,i'm not one of her fans either.However making sport of this poor Eight Bells and comparating her to this old stupid cunt,this is disgusting.RIP champion

[Paintmare06]

All horses are slow and hard to stop, racehorse or not. Belle was not "refusing" to stop, she was slowing down gradually.

[JakeKram]

So sad

[Nascarfan888]

lol nice one hillary

[Hiedilover8]

How sad...Poor little ol' filly. Thats really really sucks out loud. :'( Boo Hoo!

KC

[fenix2502]

I bet those news reporters are feeling like assholes now.
