Barbara stl in Manslra caw
KENNETT SQUARE, Pa. (AP) -
Barbara spent another “comfortable” day
in the intensive care unit at the George
D. Widener Hospital for Large Animals,
and his veterinarian reports the Kentucky
Derby winner’s attitude “remains posi
tive.”
There was no indication Barbara’s
condition had improved since 80 percent
of his left rear hoof wall was removed
Wednesday to combat the often-fatal
disease laminitis. For the third straight
day, though, Dr. Dean Richardson said
the colt’s condition remained stable.
Barbara had another restful night,
Richardson said Sunday, and assistant
trainer Peter Brette emerged after a
morning visit and said the colt “is in a
good frame of mind."
