Obituary:  Former top racehorse, Dortmund, 10, died of colic at stud in South Korea.  He was a rival of 2015 Triple Crown winner American Pharoah.  He died April 18.

Snip:

Bred in Kentucky by Emilie Fojan, Dortmund sold to owner Kaleem Shah for $140,000 at the 2014 Fasig-Tipton Midlantic 2-Year-Olds In Training Sale, and he made an immediate impact, winning each of his first six starts.

Under the shedrow of trainer Bob Baffert, Dortmund went three-for-three during his juvenile campaign, breaking his maiden by 4 3/4 lengths at Santa Anita Park, crushing a Churchill Downs optional claiming race by 7 3/4 lengths, and besting Firing Line by a head in the Grade 1 Los Alamitos Futurity.

The hulking Dortmund established himself as a top contender on the Triple Crown trail the following spring by sweeping the California preps for the Kentucky: another head victory over Firing Line in the G3 Robert B. Lewis Stakes, a front-running 1 1/4-length score in the G2 San Felipe Stakes, and a dominant 4 1/4-length victory in the G1 Santa Anita Derby.

Something tells me the parents involved in this horrific case aren't going to be getting much sympathy.

People tend to treat the disabled like dirt.
