Angels ~ In Memoriam, 2011
 
When he shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night,
And pay no worship to the garish sun.

~ William Shakespeare



We will never forget you...

I know... I don't understand why they didn't release her name unless maybe the owners didn't know yet?

Sad all the way around.

my miss storm cat 01-09-2011 01:01 PM

His name was Natureofthebeast and he was a 6 year old gelding.

His first start had been last October at Ludlow... went to the front and never looked back. He beat a big field.

His 2nd start was later in the month and he came from last to win once again.

In his 3rd start (back in November) he finished 4th and yesterday was entered at Wincanton.

I would think we all deserve more than 7 words to sum it up but this is what they saw fit to write...

Disputing lead when fell 5th, fatally injured

I'm sorry for his connections.

Rest in peace.

Dermey Bowler, an 8 year old gelding, who was "struck into" at a race at Ffos Las on the 28th but as I'm confused about the date of his passing will list him under this year (I think it might be right).

Poor guy.

Mr Palmer said 80 horses had drowned at the facility due to the flooding, of which 17 were racehorses including Cam's Card Shark, Genuwine, Eden Burst, and Fancy Card Shark.

Fifteen yearlings trapped in one barn also died.

How horrific that must have been :(

"For 13 hours the staff sat stranded on the roof, watching as drowning horses thrashed in the waters below them."

I know, it breaks your heart and there is story after story after story.

I posted this somewhere else.

I mean God, I cannot imagine.

my miss storm cat 01-14-2011 12:45 PM

Don't be sorry. I know... I was horrified when I read it.

I don't now maybe they were saving their own lives.

I mean it has to have been there was nothing they could do.

Just a tragedy.

High Fly Amore was the second foal o/o a mare that I still own a piece of, Carol's Amore. High Fly Amore was a half sister to Ju Jitsu Jax. All breakdowns are gut wrenching, but this was the first time one of "mine" has gone down. I almost got sick. Rest In Peace sweet girl. So sad. :(

He had been pulled up in his last race (more than half the field was in this one).

This was his 20th start.

Condolences to his family.

I don't want to post the video but he was the 39 year old Toowoomba-based steward who was last seen with his wife and son on top of their white SUV in the floodwaters.

A link to the fund for his family incase anyone want to make a donation...

While I would never, ever want to make a mistake of any kind on this thread, there is some discrepancy as to the fate of Snow Way.

Hopefully I got bad information and she'll make it.

I'm sorry... I always check these things out before I post them and this one time I assumed the person who told me knew 100 percent. I'm responsible though.

Again, bad day at Penn and hopefully the others are alright.
