A 6-year-old mare with two victories in eight career races has died after suffering a training injury at Santa Anita Park, state horse racing officials said.
Blushing died Friday, according to the California Horse Racing Board, which listed her death as “non-musculoskeletal,” but no further information was immediately available.
Blushing won her first two races in 2021, but hadn’t raced since November 2022, according to the industry website Equibase. Her last official workout was Friday on the track’s dirt course.
She is the fourth horse to die from a racing or training injury at the Arcadia track this year.
