Goose Nearly Trampled at Saratoga Race Course


SARATOGA SPRINGS — If only horses could honk. 

A misplaced goose was nearly trampled to death during the fourth race at Saratoga on August 28. The feathered fella apparently survived the attack, judging by a frame-by-frame video analysis, though he likely suffered some pummeled plumage. Fox Sports analyst Acacia Courtney Clement also reported that the gander withstood the equine assault.

The goose in question is not to be confused with Spa Infield Goose, the popular X account that chronicles the daily goings-on at the track. Nor should it be mistaken for Goose, the jam band that’s playing at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center on September 6 and 7.
