What a beautiful girl she was. Since I was at the track whe this horrible accident happened, it hits me very hard. It was hard enough seeing Fleet Indian pulled up 100 feet from me. But I know that she will recover. Pine Island, you were so loved, and you will be very missed. RIP beautiful girl.

My heart goes out to the people who loved her and now she is in greener pastures running her own races with her new friends waiting for her owner. She was one of God's wonderful creations. Christina Lucero
