KENNETT SQUARE, Pa. -- Barbaro was doing "much better" Friday morning, a day after his veterinarian said the Kentucky Derby winner was a "long shot" to survive a potentially fatal hoof disease.
"Barbaro was out of his sling for more than 12 hours yesterday, and he had a calm, restful night, sleeping on his side for more than four hours," Dr. Dean Richardson said in a statement issued Friday by the University of Pennsylvania's New Bolton Center. "While his condition is stable, it remains extremely serious."
Richardson appeared upbeat earlier when he told The Associated Press that Barbaro had a "good night. He's doing much better."

I also want to thank you for keeping us up-to-date on Barbaro's condition.
I do believe God is listening to all our prayers and slowly answering them - at least I'd like to hope so.
Barbaro has the best 'human' care any animal could possibly hope for but still needs help from higher powers!

I pray, I cry for this horse. He is such a fighter.
