“The horse was being kept at a farm in Manalapan” while the unidentified octogenarian owner was in the hospital with an unspecified condition, Manalapan Police Sgt. Robert Herring told The Post. “Somewhere along the way, the horse was sold at an auction.”

Herring would not identify the farm where the racehorse had been staying, the players involved, or where the auction took place. 

Freehold Raceway, a harness track, is nearby.
