Nunc Dimittis:
10yo g Jomelo (Giacomo - Miracle Rose, by Awesome Again), DNF at Arizona Downs (8/10/19) in Race 5. "pulled up, vanned off",
subsequently euthanized. 63 - 12-9-6, $454, 345. MSP. 2 wins in 2019. Raced on the big stage under some big name trainers and jockeys
until 2017 when he fell down the ladder and landed at Turf Paradise. RIP Jomelo.
A good number of 10+ year olds have paid the price in 2019, and we'll have a list of names at the end of the year. And with that, my contributions to the War Horse Chronicles will likely conclude.
