Malakoff euthanized after workout
Lynch had some very distressing news to report as Malakoff, a 5-year-old horse owned by Stronach Stable, had to be euthanized after breaking down during a workout here Friday. "He shattered a sesamoid," Lynch said. "Ironically, it wasn't the one that he originally injured." Malakoff had suffered the first injury when finishing first, only to be disqualified and placed fifth, in Fort Erie's Prince of Wales on Julyo16, 2006. The horse did not return to the races until this June 21, and won his second start back in an optional $62,500 claiming race here Aug. 24. Malakoff had registered his lone stakes win in the Grade 3 Marine here in spring 2006, and followed up with a third-place finish in the Queen's Plate. "Not that I want to see any of them get hurt, but he was a sentimental favorite of mine," Lynch said. "It's a bad day." Rest in peace. http://www.drf.com/news/article/99762.html |

The recently imported stallion Mazel Trick (Phone Trick) has lost a long battle with lamenitis and was humanely put down late Friday afternoon at Canmor. Mazel Trick, a multiple graded stakes winner of $435,640 was the sire of nine stakes winners from six crops. The 13-year-old Kentucky bred is currently the leading stallion standing in British Columbia based on 2008 progeny earnings of $1.7M. His first crop of BC-breds will race in 2009. 10/26...Regal Intention passes unexpectedly at age 24... http://www.canmorfarms.ca/ |

Sunburnt Lad...
http://www.thoroughbrednews.co.nz/sp....aspx?id=37657 Lightning claims Sunburnt Lad 14 Nov 2008 By Rob Burnet The wild storms that lashed Victoria overnight and into early Friday morning have claimed the life of the successful sprinter Sunburnt Lad through an unlucky lightning strike. Sunburnt Lad had just gone out to spell after finishing his spring campaign when he was struck down reported Sky Channel’s Andrew Bensley after speaking with part-owner David Moodie. The five-year-old gelding, trained by Mathew Ellerton and ridden by Chris Symons, was third in last Saturday’s Group I Patinack Farm Classic over 1200m at Flemington, completing a four race spring that saw two wins, including the Group II Caulfield Sprint over 1100m on October 18th, followed by a second in the Group II Salinger Stakes over 1200m at Flemington when a clearer running would have seen another win. Sunburnt Lad, another good racehorse by Scenic out of the Blazing Sword mare Razor Blade, raced for Moodie’s Contract Racing Syndicate and NS and Mrs GC Psaltis, winning eight races from just 18 starts, and with three placings earning stakes of $379,000. |
A bolt of lightning struck and killed five-year-old gelding Sunburnt Land on a property just north of Melbourne, Australia. Sunburnt Land, the winner of eight races from 18 starts, including the Group Two International Sprint at Caulfield during this year's Melbourne spring carnival, had been spelling at Romsey, north of the city. The gelding had won prize money of about $380,000.

Kasi my dog 1994-2008
My little beagle Kasi past away early this morning at the age 14. She was in declining health the last month and quite ill the past few days. But, she was a trooper and didn't cry or whimper through the ordeal. Quietly she died in her sleep and now is with her best friend; Jasmine our cat who died two years ago. It's been a rough year for me personally with my dad dying along with Karen's mom passing. It will be real quiet around the house now that both animals are gone and the kids are on thier own, just me and Karen. Goodbye my dear Kasi :( we all will miss you & love you always!

At age 7, Five Steps made a third bid in the Maryland Million Classic this year (he finished second in the 2007 Classic and third in 2005) but exited the race with bone chips. Surgery was successful, and Five Steps went home to recover, then contracted a still-undetermined illness and was euthanized early this month.

Anyone who follows racing in Japan knows this name.....
Eye Popper, a grand old gentleman, was euthanized today. ******* laminitis. Off the top of my head (cause there's no article on the JRA site yet), I believe he ran in the Tenno Sho four times, he ran in the Caulfield Cup (he was 2nd to Railings), the Melbourne Cup (didn't do well), won the Hanshin Daishoten last year in his second attempt... he was 8 years old and had a lot of fans. Here's his last race (from October 12th)... the Kyoto Daishoten (G2). He was 3rd. http://www.jra.go.jp/JRADB/asx/2008/...804080211h.asx edit - Okay well the race is here cause this link won't work. http://www.derbytrail.com/forums/sho...per#post438964 Poor guy. Good night good boy. |

Nice mare, won 5 races and over $120,000. Heart attack during a race today, hope she felt no pain and her owners have lots of good memories. |

JODAMI PASSES AWAY By Tom Peacock, PA Sport Peter Beaumont is reflecting on the loss of his 1993 Cheltenham Gold Cup winner Jodami, who died on Monday at the age of 23. Also second in the following year's Gold Cup and three times successful in the Irish Hennessy, Jodami had an accident at the trainer's stable in Brandsby, North Yorkshire, where he spent many winters. "It's very sad. We used to see him every morning at six and give him his oats in the evening," said Beaumont. "I rode him for many years myself when I was looking after the yearlings and we will all miss him. "I was at the press awards lunch yesterday and it was just near the end when they called me up to tell me. "It's hard to say whether there was anything wrong with him before, but I do know there was nothing they could do. "Ireland, Cheltenham and Haydock were the main great days and he was no trouble at all - we never had a cross word." http://farm1.static.flickr.com/40/10...66bd40.jpg?v=0 http://cache.gettyimages.com/xc/1242...30FDCFC4C15FBB |
It's been a bad week and so many truly talented horses left us, but i need to add this name and just remember him for a minute.
Mighty Beau. I don't know if any sites will bother with an obit so from memory I know he won the Aegon Turf Sprint and was once 2nd to Soaring Free (Canadian HOY) but i can't remember which race. I'm pretty sure he was in the Hollywood Turf Express. Back when Mullins trained him, he ran at Royal Ascot in the King's Stand Stakes and the Golden Jubilee. I think he was 5th in the King's Stand. Anyway, he was pulled up at Penn National a couple of days ago and they were kind enough to write back. Nice horse who died trying running for a crappy $4 thousand. Run in peace, good boy. |

Cecil's 2,000 Guineas hopeful Wingwalker dies By Turia Tellwright3.42PM 2 DEC 2008 HIGHLY-REGARDED juvenile Wingwalker collapsed and died on Monday morning. The Henry Cecil-trained colt jumped to the fore of the 2009 2,000 Guineas betting after two impressive starts, but subsequently disappointed in the Group 3 Somerville Tattersall Stakes in October and was consequently a general 33-1 shot for the Classic. Teddy Grimthorpe, racing manager to owner Khalid Abdullah, said the two-timewinner was thought to have suffered a heart attack. "Wingwalker collapsed and died during a canter yesterday morning," Grimthorpe confirmed on Tuesday. "We have yet to have the results of the post-mortem but we can presume he suffered a heart attack. It's a huge loss as Henry rated him very highly and we thought he might have been very special. "It will be felt very hard throughout the organisation." |
No link yet, but I have heard that Sweet Vendetta - winner of the GII Black Eyed Susan this year, has passed away at Winstar from some sort of bacterial infection. Terribly sad news. She was planned to be bred to Distorted Humor this season. I'll pass on confirmation when I get it. :(
I received confirmation from a source close to the owners and previous owners that this is in fact the case. Sad day. |

WTF? How did I miss Mighty Beau? I can't remember how many times I saw him run in Derby/Preakness undercards. I hope Sgt. Bert is doing ok.
