    There is a report on FB that Valyra, 5th fav for the Arc, has been pts following a training accident on the sands this morning. I can’t find a confirmation yet. :(

    Unfortunately, fractured her off hind femur on the sands and there wasn’t anything they could do to save her. RIP.

    Very sad. You would think sand would be the safest surface (unless of course they were running her through deep stuff)
    Maybe it was a weakness that would have broken down some time anyway, maybe during the Arc. RIP :cry:
