Things got very interesting even before the Kentucky Derby got underway when one of the horses reared up and threw his jockey as he was being loaded into the starting gate.

As the starting gate was being loaded up, Great White, ridden by jockey Alex Achard, appeared to get spooked by something, reared up, and fell backwards.

That sent Achard tumbling, with the 1,300-pound horse landing on his back and almost rolling on top of the jockey.

Fortunately, both Achard and Great White appeared to be OK after the incident, though the horse was immediately scratched and led away from the gate. The rest of the field was then loaded, and the race went off without incident.

Golden Tempo, who entered the race at 30-1, came away with the win.

Man, what a heart-in-mouth moment that was before the race even began.

For some reason, I think we forget just how big horses are because they’re usually pretty cool. But now and then one decides, “Meh, I’m not doing this whole racing thing today,” and rage-quits, just not always like that.

It’s always worth noting that Great White was one of the biggest horses in the field, so that was a lot of horse that nearly came down on its jockey.

Although even a small horse falling on you wouldn’t be fun, not even one of those mini horses.

Surely, vets will give Great White a thorough once-over after that, and hopefully Achard will get checked out as well, in horse racing’s version of the infield care center NASCAR drivers visit after a crash.

According to the information, the proposal for revival of the lake is pending for about 20 years. The work could not start due to lack of funds. Later, despite the budget being approved, the project was not completed on time. The work was targeted to be completed by December 2020 but was delayed due to the Corona epidemic. Even after this the project is incomplete till date. At one time the lake was spread over an area of ​​about 39 acres but due to encroachment and negligence its area has reduced to 32 acres. In this too, there is a plan to develop the lake only in an area of ​​14 acres.

Treatment plant worth Rs 7 crore useless
In the year 2014, a budget of Rs 22 crore was fixed for the revival of the lake. Under the scheme, a sewage treatment plant (STP) was installed at a cost of about Rs 7 crore to clean the drain water and put it in the lake. However, this plant has been closed for the last several years. Due to this, the system of supplying water to the lake has come to a standstill.

Every year we hear that this time the work will be completed. But the situation remains the same. Now it seems like we are just talking.

There is no water here, it stinks. On top of that, people say that there will be a laser show and a café will be built here. First bring water to the lake.
