Barn 37 | Horse Racing Free Tips

Officials at the New York Racing Association and New York State Gaming Commission have removed the precautionary quarantine placed on Barn 37 at Belmont Park after test results for a horse with a suspected case of Equine Herpesvirus-1 (EHV-1) came back negative.

Freudnme (Freud), a 4-year-old colt trained by Chris Englehart, exhibited fever and neurological symptoms Saturday morning, which triggered a precautionary quarantine of all 37 horses stabled in Barn 37 at Belmont. In addition, heightened biosecurity measures were immediately implemented throughout the barn and all horses were monitored for fever and other symptoms.

All horses in Barn 37 were found to be afebrile and asymptomatic.

Following the negative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests, which were performed at Cornell University in Ithaca, NY, the precautionary quarantine has been lifted effective immediately. As a result, horses stabled in Barn 37 can enter races and train among the general population.

Freudnme is currently under the care of a private veterinarian and is being closely monitored. He last raced when finishing second in the Ontario County S. June 24, 2019 at Finger Lakes.
