Hi Guys
Feeling low.. found my 20 year old Thoroughbred dead in the field this morning, looks like he died bad, probably a heart attack.
He was a miserable old bugger, wouldn't let anyone catch him (except me) in the field, came last in 2 races as a two year old, brilliant potential as a showjumper, nearly died as a 5 year old after mullering a fetlock under a stable door. Retired when recovered and became a brilliant nanny to two home bred foals teaching the meaning of manners.
Spent his later years trying to convince me he should be treated as the racehorse he should have been and acted like a two year old when bringing him in to his stable during winter.
Goodbye old friend, love you.................
