RIP Fatass

I still can't believe it. I kept hoping one day this summer I'd get a call to come get the horse. That he needed a home. We'd take him. Whether he was ready for trail riding or broke down, we'd take him. I looked at his results yesterday afternoon and saw he dropped his rider and was vanned off at Arlington. It was a 3 horse incident, 3 horses Did Not Finish. Of course in the charts they leave out any details. I can't get my fucking Equibase account or my TVG account to cooperate so I can actually watch the replay.... at the time I didn't know how bad it was and just wanted to see what had happened. Now I'm not sure I want to watch it.... Another of Fatass' followers texted me last night telling me she confirmed that Fatass (So So Worth It) had been euthanized. I am just sick over it and heart broken all over again. I know it's part of the game, but it's part I hate and part I will never ever get used to. He was an awesome horse. We loved him very much, and I still did this last 5 months since he was claimed. Too much personality for his own good. And he loved to have his ears scratched. If I didn't already miss him before.... So rest in peace on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge, Fatass and know you were always loved by us and will be missed always.
