Memuneh to return to competition soon
Memuneh had developed a major abscess on his rump and his Veterinarian had related to its owner Violet Hodge that the horse may have been injected with a toxic substance that resulted in the infection.
Mrs. Hodge had told Virgin Islands News Online that the infection was so bad that the Veterinarian squeezed out enough inflammation to fill a bucket and had noted that Memuneh would be “down” for a while.
Michael “Myke” Hodge of the L&B Stable told this news agency yesterday January 31, 2012 that Memuneh’s injury has healed and “will be back on the track soon”.
Memuneh’s performance at the Festival Races on August 2 at Ellis Thomas Downs had raised questions after placing third in the C Class race despite being favoured to win.
The horse was also coming off two successive victories including a win in St. Thomas in July.
Ms. Hodge had previously called on Government to assist with the securing of the stables at Sea Cows Bay.
