She ran the race of her life....RIP....So sad :(
She was all heart chasing that roid rager Big Brown. Don't think Brown was juiced to the max? Off the stuff he ran dead last. To bad she paid for the cheating of others.

I admire Larry Jones and his wife. He speaks so lovingly about EIGHT BELLES. You know she was (is) loved. I miss her still. I have a picture of her on my desk at work. It was taken the night before the Derby with such beautiful lights in the background. Rest in peace beautiful filly. XO always.

horses have to hold up so much weight. having two broken legs almost makes it impossible and unbearable for the horse to go through. so it is the only humane thing to do unfortunately.
I wish more people would see this and see what an amazing person he is.
This is how the racing industry mostly is. People care and love thier horses...
RIP eight belles,
and god bless you, larry.

It is truly sad about what happened to Eight Belles, and she will be forever missed. It's also sad that Larry Jones is retiring next year, he's such a great role model, and a wonderful person!!
