These are a little late, but I've only just found out.
They need to be added here though. Hong Kong runners... General Speedee, Socrates and Tactic King. Rest in peace. Last edited by my miss storm cat : 07-28-2008 at 08:21 PM. |

Towy Girl (4) and Arctic Desert (8 years old) at Kempton on Wednesday.
Excerpt, comments on running (Racing post) Sadly, there was a nasty incident over four furlongs from home, when Kaballero appeared to clip heels with Tuning Fork and fell, which ended up bringing down Arctic Desert, who brought down Imperium and Towy Girl, and made Billy Cray on Bollywood unseat. The rider on Tuning Fork was found to have caused considerable interference by careless riding, in that he had allowed his mount to drift right towards the rail, and he was suspended for seven days. |

an excerpt from drf:
California Blaze dies during training California Blaze, who finished sixth in a division of the Oceanside Stakes on July 16, died of an apparent heart attack while training on Thursday, trainer Darrell Vienna said. "They think it was a heart attack, but the necropsy is not done," Vienna said. "He had no problems with his limbs." Owned by breeder Charlotte Wrather, California Blaze, 3, won 2 of 6 starts and $62,660. |

Oh my god! I've been out of internet touch and had no idea. Charlotte had such high hopes for this fellow, looking at longer turf races. She must be devastated. |

From South Africa Racing...
WENDYWOOD DEAD (no author listed) The best middle distance 3 year old filly of last season, Wendywood, has died. The Sean Tarry stable was on a high after National Colour's second in one of Europe's strongest Group 1 sprints only to find out that their other stable star has died. Like National Colour, Wendywood was owned by Chris Van Niekerk The filly was the toast of the South African racing scene late last season when she won the Woolavington Stakes for fillies over 2000m at Greyville. The race is traditionally regarded as a pointer to the Vodacom July. Wendywood was having only her second start when she won this group 1 event. She was beaten only once. She suffered a bout of colic on Friday night according to stable sources. |
