Had a friend with lovely grey eventing horse (a TB) she called Teddy (for Teddy Bear). He was kind and honest, so gentle she could ride around with her toddler in front of her in the saddle. One morning he didn't come to the gate to be led in for his breakfast; they searched the paddock and found him down with a broken shoulder. Never found out how he did it. All those years of running cross-country courses with tricky fences and he was never seriously hurt, then when out in his pasture he managed to suffer a fatal injury. It happens.
