Barbaro's condition 'excellent' on Wednesday

Dean Richardson, chief surgeon at the University of Pennsylvania's New Bolton Center, said Kentucky Derby (G1) winner Barbaro's condition was excellent on Wednesday.
In a mid-afternoon update, Richardson said the Dynaformer colt was stable and happy.
The New Bolton Center has been inundated with well wishes for the colt since he was transported to the facility from Pimlico Race Course on May 20 after sustaining multiple fractures to his right hind leg in the Preakness Stakes (G1).
"In the past few days, we've received hundreds of well wishes for Barbaro," said Corinne Sweeney, a veterinarian and vice chairman of New Bolton's department of clinical studies. "And you can see they've come in many forms. We have flowers … They're in the lobby; they're up in the [intensive care unit] with Barbaro. They're all over the hospital.
"We've got carrots, apples. Everybody's making sure that he's not getting all the apples because if he had all of them that would be too many. So they've been shared with his hospital mates. We've received e-mails. There's just a stack of some of the e-mails. And many, many cards and kind notes."
