Miami Gardens, FL (January 10, 2014) Six starved off-the-track Thoroughbreds were seized by police yesterday, and custody of them was given to SFSPCA. The horses range in age from 3 to 10 and are in varying states of health. One, a bay gelding named Kenny’s Z, raced as recently as 9/27/2014. The owner has been arrested and will face criminal charges.

The horses will be seen and treated by Dr. Zachary Franklin of Templeton & Franklin Veterinary Associates on Monday, Jan. 12.  More details on the horses will be posted after they are evaluated.
