Portland Meadow's Final Horse Kills
An Animal Rights Article from All-Creatures.org
Portland Meadows closed for good in
February. Progress.
Through a FOIA request to the Oregon Racing Commission, I have confirmed
the following kills at that state’s tracks in 2019.
Please note that
Portland Meadows, the only regularly-running racetrack in Oregon, closed for
good in February. Progress.
- I’lbeamonkeysuncle, Jan 15, Portland R – “sudden death (vessel ruptures
in lungs).”
I’lbeamonkeysuncle was almost 11 and this was his 63rd time under the whip.
- Four Times Lucky, Sep 6, Harney Fair R – “internal bleed.”
Four Times Lucky was almost 8 and this was her 61st time under the whip.
