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.

At Saratoga on Sunday Melissa's Dream flipped over walking to the paddock, fracturing her skull, and had to be euthanized.

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.

Pardon my ignorance, but how often does a suspensory problem lead to euthanization? Doesn't that seem a little extreme?

some soft tissue injuries can be catastrophic, and be more serious and harder to recover from than a bone break.
