A HORSE at a well known paddocks has been put down following an explosion this evening.
A fire broke out in Moulton Paddocks Estate, Newmarket at 4.15pm today after an explosion in a medical chamber.
One horse had to be put down after the incident.
Two fire crews were dispatched to the scene and isolated the electricity supply before extinguishing the fire.

Just heard about this dreadful news from Newmarket.
I have no further news on the horse involved, but it is likely to be trained by Godolphin.
Dreadful incident
