Chelokee Relocated to Vinery Bloodhorse 8/28/08

Chelokee beat the odds after his ankle injury Courier-Journal, KY 8/17/08 Excerpt: Dr. Foster Northrop, the Churchill veterinarian who attended to Chelokee at the track, said that a dislocated ankle "99 times out of 100 is a euthanasia case." But incredibly -- even though Chelokee tried to continue running with the injury after unseating his jockey -- there was no bone fracture. Great article with lots of pictures of surgery, x-rays etc. plus VIDEO
