A horse infected with rabies died at Penn National Race Course on May 12. Bold Naskra, a 7-year-old horse in trainer Bruno Bellucci's barn, showed symptoms of rabies and was placed in quarantine before he died. As a precaution, two stable employees were given rabies shots.
Bellucci claimed Bold Naskra for $10,000 at Philadelphia Park on April 8. He ran fourth at that track in his last start on April 28.
