Some times a tragedy hits the horse world that is so sad and so unnecessary because of human error. I hope God holds this family in his arms.

The level of catastrophic loss that’s still unfolding at the Beutler Ranch in Elk City, Oklahoma right now is beyond comprehension. The horror of so many dead horses—the death toll is now approaching 70 and counting, I’m told—is devastating a family-dynasty breeding program that’s a 95-year-old cowboy empire. What Elra, Jake and Lynn Beutler started in 1929, and Elra’s grandson Bennie and his son Rhett built onto with Beutler & Son Rodeo Company today can’t be replicated or replaced.

I have intentionally sat quiet on this story, knowing the Beutlers can’t even breathe right now. They have no words, or tears left. They also have their hometown rodeo to produce this weekend, and with so much of their horse herd and generations-deep legacy wiped out without warning.

I’ve had many off-the-record conversations with cowboy people about this tragic turn of events in the last few days. I just had my first one on the record with the friend and veterinarian the Beutlers have entrusted with their four-legged family, Dr. Gregg VeneKlasen. Because of what may lie ahead legally, we will stick to only the facts that can be appropriately shared publicly at this time. More to come later, when the time is right for the Beutler family.

Early reporting that many of the Beutlers’ horses were accidentally fed cattle feed is false, according to VeneKlasen.

“What these horses got was actually a horse feed mix with a huge amount of the cattle drug monensin (brand name Rumensin) in it,” VeneKlasen said. “This was a tragic case of human error somewhere along the line, because tiny amounts of monensin is poison to horses. It kills them. Monensin is used in some cattle feed, but this amount in this horse feed delivered to the Beutlers would have killed cattle, too.

“Much is known about what has happened here that cannot yet be told. But the bottom line on this story is that it’s an important one to tell, so this never happens to anyone else. I will say this: Never buy horse feed from a mill that makes cattle feed. Period. Please quote me on that. Every horse that ate this feed is dead. The only bucking mare still alive is (NFR bucker) Black Kat, because she was at my place (Timber Creek Veterinary Hospital in Canyon, Texas; that’s her in this picture) when this feed was delivered. The only Killer Bee baby that is still alive refused to eat the feed.

“I cried. We all cried. These bloodlines were five generations in the making. Many of the stars of this breeding program are gone. To see what’s happened here to these horses will make you puke.”

I stopped using the word “tragedy” a long time ago for situations that did not warrant it. “It’s not a tragedy if nobody died” has become a famous line of mine when perspective is lost and drama is overblown. This, my friends, is a tragedy in our rodeo family.

The one silver lining I’ve seen so far is the heartwarming generosity of other stock contractors stepping up and offering their stock to the Beutlers. That’s how our rodeo family rolls in the toughest of times, and it’s something special to behold and be very proud of.

This story continues to unfold. More when we can. Until then, God Bless every horse who has died. And prayers for the Beutler family as they try to find a path forward with so many family members missing.

You can win but only if you try.

The Grand National is known for its difficulty, however, the 1928 race took these challenges to another level.

Heavy fog and treacherous conditions, significantly increased the difficulty of an already daunting race.

It was also the year that 42 runners started, the most up to that point.

With three false starts, even the broken starting tape had to be knotted together before the race could begin.

The conditions quickly took their toll and the heavy fog made visibility extremely poor, which, combined with the challenging course, led to numerous falls and withdrawals.

Among the chaos, on the first circuit, the leading horse, Easter Hero, fell at the Canal Turn, got stuck in the ditch and brought down the next three horses behind him.

At this point 20 runners refused to jump the fence causing a massive pile up, leaving only seven horses to continue in the race.

And one of them was the 100/1 long shot Tipperary Tim, ridden by jockey William Dutton.

By the second jumping of Becher's Brook only five horses remained in the race with Billy Barton in the lead ahead of May King, Great Span, Tipperary Tim and Maguelonne.

Maguelonne fell at Valentine's Brook with May King soon following before Great Span lost his saddle and rider.

That left only Billy Barton and Tipperary Tim. Billy Barton had led the race until the last fence where Tipperary Tim drew level.

Billy Barton struck the final fence dismounting his rider, Tommy Cullinan.

Tipperary Tim won the 1928 Grand National with a time of 10 minutes 23.40 seconds. He was followed by the riderless Great Span and a remounted Billy Barton came a distant second.

Only two horses completed the race setting the record for the fewest finishers.

Tipperary Tim became one of the biggest outsiders to win the Grand National at 100/1.

The winning jockey, Bill Dutton, later recalled that a friend had told him before the race: "you'll only win if all the others fall".

Today I stopped by the American Legion to retire three flags that were worse for wear from flying over my farm. There was a flag drop box there that was stuffed to the top. It made me sad to see them all there. I think we need to have a retirement ceremony for all those flags. Maybe the Boy Scouts can assist the Veterans with this. God bless America!
