The son of Conveyance was in his trailer near Columbus, Ohio, heading home from Parx Racing when noise from a nearby braking semi-truck scared him, according to trainer Tim Eggleston. There was a loud bang as if the truck may have hit something. That sound spooked Nobody Listens, who slipped in his stall. The trailer was driving through a construction area making it impossible to get off the road.
"He got kind of got upside down in the trailer and got he got stuck around and then he severed an artery and bled out," Eggleston said.
RIP Nobody Listens. Anyone else think this part of the article describing the circumstances sounds strange as hell? Freak accidents are necessarily freak - and maybe it's that simple. Just sounds weird to me.
