High Yield had to be euthanized a few days ago because of Osler illness.


Quote
HIGH YIELD N?EST PLUS DE CE MONDE
Pour Alain Regnier, la bonne nouvelle de l arrivee de Hold That Tiger a malheureusement ete doublee d une mauvaise : la disparition de High Yield (Storm Cat), l etalon vedette du haras de la Haie Neuve. Il etait monte a 110 juments et en aurait sans doute fait 130 cette annee... Alain Regnier commente tristement : Impuissant devant la maladie d Osler (infection du coeur) qui touchait High Yield, nous avons du nous resoudre a nous en separer. ce fut un moment tres dur, je vous le garantis.

"HIGH YIELD PASSED AWAY"
For Alain Regnier, the good news of the arrival of Hold That Tiger has unfortunately been doubled of a poor one : the death of High Yield (Storm Cat), the star of the haras de la Haie Neuve. He covered 110 mares last year and would probably have cover 130 this year ... Alain Regnier sadly said : "We could do nothing against the Osler's disease (infection of the heart) which affected High Yield, we have to euthanize him. It was a very hard time, I can assure you."

Rest in peace.

Moscow Flyer's sire put down

MOSCOW SOCIETY, sire of the great Moscow Flyer, was put down on Thursday night after suffering a leg injury. The 22-year-old son of Nijinsky had spent the last 18 years at Hugh Williams' Ballyvolane Stud in County Limerick, where he stood for €3,000 this year.

“He fractured a hind leg getting up in his box and we had to have him put down,” Williams said on Friday. “I bought him as a four-year-old out of training with Henry Cecil and he was a part of the furniture here.

“Although Moscow Flyer would be his best, he's had plenty of top horses and he's done me very well.He was always a National Hunt sire but he got a 5f winner as well so he was very versatile.”

While the 13-time Grade 1 winner Moscow Flyer was undoubtedly Moscow Society's best runner, the sire was responsible for a number of outstanding jumps performers.

Among them are the smart young chaser Snowy Morning, along with Mighty Moss, runner-up to Istabraq in the Royal & Sunalliance Novices' Hurdle, and the prolific Moscow Express, winner of the Grade 1 Powers Gold Label Tote Gold Cup at Fairyhouse.

Owned by Sheikh Mohammed, Moscow Society ran just twice during his racing career. He made a winning debut under Steve Cauthen over 1m4f at Doncaster in the May of his three-year-old season, having been sent of the heavy odds on favourite.

That result earned him a trip to Royal Ascot to contest the Listed Queen's Vase, where he was beaten only three-quarters of a length by Green Adventure, having pulled seven lengths clear of the field. Having been struck into during the race, Moscow Society didn't race again.

Three horses euthanized

Three horses were euthanized on Tuesday morning at Hollywood Park as a result of injuries sustained either galloping or during workouts.

Wise Mandate, trained by Mel Stute, broke down shortly after completing a six-furlong drill in 1:13.80. According to Stute's son, Gary, Wise Mandate broke his sesamoids.

Wise Mandate finished last in the California Cup Juvenile on Nov. 3.

I guess the other two weren't important enough to list.
