Dr.Dean Richardson spends some affectionate time with Barbaro!
June 9, 2006
KENNETT SQUARE, PA – Kentucky Derby winner Barbaro continues to please veterinarians at the George D. Widener Hospital for Large Animals with his progress on this day before the running of the finale of horse racing’s Triple Crown. Barbaro is recovering from a shattered hind leg sustained at the Preakness on May 20 , and remains in intensive care at the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine’s New Bolton Center.
Though Barbaro won’t be at the Belmont Stakes on Saturday, June 10, current plans for airing the race on ESPN (noon until 5 p.m.) and on ABC Wide World of Sports (5 p.m.–7 p.m.) include live shots of Barbaro in his stall.
