„She never got to finish her race“ wow those words hit different😢 She would have won, for sure. Secretariat's trainer said that she was even better than him.
Ruffian (April 17, 1972 - July 7, 1975) was an American Thoroughbred racehorse who won ten consecutive races, including the Acorn, Mother Goose and Coaching Club American Oaks, then known as the American Triple Tiara. She was in the lead at every point of call in every race she ever ran and set new stakes records in each of the eight stakes races she won. Her dominating wins caused her to be named the American Champion filly at both ages two and three. In July 1975, she entered a highly anticipated match race with Kentucky Derby winner Foolish Pleasure, in which she broke down. Surgery was attempted but Ruffian reacted poorly and exacerbated the injuries while coming out of anesthesia. As a result, she was euthanized.
What makes me even more sad is that when she woke up from the hospital/vet she believed that was still in race and they had to put her down. Ruffian totally didn’t deserve that. Fly high legend 😢🕊
it’s just so sad that, seconds before when they were in the start gate they never would have thought. that was it.. the last gallop she would take. she died doing what she loved ❤
@@awhxm1na horses are strong passionate animals. if they really do not want to do something they wouldn’t and the won’t. ruffian was known to constantly be running and prancing around. she always pushed against the bit to win. all she ever wanted was to please her owner. so yes, she died doing what she loved.
@@awhxm1na this isn’t about tortillas. but if your bringing him into this, yes he didn’t want to get abused. neither did ruffian, secretariat, seabiscut, man o war etc. they all got “abused” becuase that’s how it was back then and that’s how the equestrian world works as sad is it is. that still doesn’t take away their passion and it won’t untill the day they die or are retired. so, i don’t see what your trying to get at here?
Ruffian dropped out of the race with massive injuries to her right leg after being startled by a bird. According to her rider, no matter how he tried to pull her up she was deep into her race state and just wouldn't stop, which was confirmed by the rider of Foolish Pleasure who heard the initial injury occur. The amount of damage should not have been operated on but the owners didn't want the three year old to pass without trying so a 12 hour surgery took place in which the majority of her right lower leg and hoof were reconstructed. Unfortunately the amount of time she was under anaesthesia meant when she came around she was badly affected and thrashed around, undoing most of the work put into fixing her and she was immediately put to sleep. Today a horse with such injuries would not leave the track alive, even with all the new techniques and anaesthetics available such damage is too much. Had she stopped when first pulled up she stood a fighting chance but adrenaline pushed her on. It is becoming more and more common for horses with simple, clean breaks to survive and recover but these still don't get back to previous full form.
"She never got to finish her race" those words make you tear up and cry ruffian you didnt deserve to die so young and horse racing is abuse the poor thing R.I.P RUFFIAN fly high angel may you always be remembered #stopanimalabuse!❤❤❤❤❤❤
Ikr poor filly a 2 yr old! Horse racing is abuse and I felt pain when I saw her leg “like they said” “ruffian powerful, fast, and brave” #stophorseracing
This is so sad how Ruffian ended, she didn’t diserve it. If she wasn’t a racehorse this would’ve never happened, but if she wasn’t a racehorse, what would she be known for? R.I.P Ruffian 😔
her husband named Hickstead only for years he won The cups for her wife when RuffianCollapsed on the floor while during a match race I hope she gets better soon instead of his husband he was a champion God bless them two
Sometimes it hurts to end things. But she finished her race and got the best prize she could have gotten. She won freedom, because in heaven there are no people to force her onto the track.
She wasnt forced to run dumbass she loved her job so much that the jockey riding her that day had to FORCE her to stop racing when he realized she injuired herself
The racing industry is UNFAIR no matter how good the horse gets treated they are WAY to young not even fully developed yet . And a lot of them die after the race or on the track…….
That horse loved running more than anything else. She tried to keep running and the jockey jumped off and stopped her to save her from further pain. She then continued to try and run when she woke up from anesthesia. These horses live for it. It’s in their very blood and bones. Are there things we could do to make it a safer sport? Absolutely. Should we keep them from running? No.
Someone said foolish pleasure pushed ruffian to the side causing her ankle to do that but the fact her jockey didn’t even get of and just kept on trying to steer her the other way is just heartbreaking
Ruffian Was Not A Champion....Shes Our Savior And Legend.....People Who Understand This Comment....Respect Hickstead And Ruffian....So Hickstead Was A Legend And He Was My Favorite Horse And Ruffian Too...But The Bad Ending Was Ruffian Broke Her Leg And Hickstead Got A HeartAttack....Then I Almost Tear Up...Rest In Peace Hickstead.....But Ruffian Is Now In A Better Place Now Shes Now With Hickstead😢❤
I like to think Ruffian won the race against Foolish Pleasure. She wasnleading by a half length and she was on the wrong lead. Foolish Pleasure was behind with his right lead forward and Ruffian was on the left
If u don’t understand ruffian was an 3yrs old filly and she won 10/10 races and she was race whith foolish pleasure and she broke her leg and he had to go to surgery and her like ankle and half leg has token off but she had no ankle and she died so that’s all I know ❤😢
“She never got to finish her race..” Damnnnn, hits harder than anything i’ve seen.
I'm still crying over her
Rip ruffian
We miss you
RIP RUFFIAN ;( we will never forget you 😢
This is so sad
The story of Ruffian was a sad ending, but her legacy will forever live on. The best Filly to ever step foot on a racetrack. RIP Ruffian 🌹
Random fact, her uncle is secretariat
that explains why she was so amazing❤❤
wow i didnt know that!
That's cool
Intresting fact
Her pedigree whas realy bad
@@Warrior_Cats9067how?

Well she wasn’t forced to run. She was pretty fast, the rider hold her back!
She wasnt forced to run dumbass she loved her job so much that the jockey riding her that day had to FORCE her to stop racing when he realized she injuired herself

The racing industry is UNFAIR no matter how good the horse gets treated they are WAY to young not even fully developed yet .

Love it new sub!
This is so sad 😭 personally I don’t like horseracing it CAN be abuse, not all the time, but It can
Really sad
I like to think Ruffian won the race against Foolish Pleasure. She wasnleading by a half length and she was on the wrong lead. Foolish Pleasure was behind with his right lead forward and Ruffian was on the left
She didn’t fall or lose , she was called home
Can you do secretariat?
Those clips look like there from seabiscuit
Poor angel died
Guys Ruffian is only 3 years old so she is to young to race's her owner is to obses with races and wins she life only 3 years
For people who didn’t see what happened she broke her foot and now can’t run
❤❤❤❤😢😢😢
Was ruffian a Australian horse from Australia
she was born in 1972 and died in 1975
She almost made it
Rip
If u don’t understand ruffian was an 3yrs old filly and she won 10/10 races and she was race whith foolish pleasure and she broke her leg and he had to go to surgery and her like ankle and half leg has token off but she had no ankle and she died so that’s all I know ❤😢
My cousin is heart broken
🥺🥺🥺🥺😭😭😭😭🥺🥺😭😭😭🐎❤️
Horse racing is abusive. Someday it will be outlawed just like the diving horse is a thing of the past.
Some parts can be abusive but not everything is abusive ruffian was dearly loved and loved to run
The world is full of misery cause by human stupidity
😭😭😭😭
She would have won that race if she Didnt step wrong when changing leg
Horse racing is just abuse 😢
Ruffian loved what she did and was treated like a queen to the end
It was because her bones (she was three remember always) werent developed enough she was really young beautyfull mare
Filly
@@EchoingswaveofArts still basically the same she was pretty
@@Cedevita_od_limuna no not the same a mare is a grown horse and are considered grown when 4 years old she was 3 so she was still a filly
@@EchoingswaveofArts ik
@@EchoingswaveofArts but its still a female horse
Every racehorse is apart of my family anyone can guess my wish I will subscribe to them
😭
ruffian was born in 1972 not 1975. 1975 is when she died
Ruffian She broke her back leg not her front leg this is a horse that is similar to ruffian but it is not her
Ich finde pferde rennen tierquälerei😢😢😢
How about hickstead?
That sad thing is he never god a victory on his lost breath..😭
Ruffian was a mare not a stallion
Ik I wasn't bothered to edit the comment
Actually no she was a filly@@JaslineRivera-Floyd
THIS IS WHY I DINT SUPPORT RACING
Ouchhh
