RIP to one of the worst pedigrees to ever win a BC race, and I mean that as a compliment.

I was sad to hear this, poor horse fought so long, as someone who has personally battled the rollercoaster ride of laminitis I know too well the heartache, my condolences to the connections.

This is such sad news. Just yesterday I listened to Steve Haskin's podcast and the last question he was asked was about Kip Deville's condition, and he said that he had heard that Kip had taken a turn for the worse. My heart really sunk at hearing that. He had shown such determination and strength, and I'm sure we all had hopes that he would someday be able to lead a normal life.

He had the heart of a champion. Run free, KD.
