    How sad. It shouldn't make any difference whether a horse was good or moderate, but somehow it always seems worse when it's a younger, more promising type.

    Incidentally, what is the bad news about Silver By Nature? I was playing back the racing that I'd missed and heard a reference to him, which implied "bad news"

    Was put down after breaking a leg on the gallops last week again. Was a favourite of mine- he was a big stunning grey! RIP <peacedove>

    Very sad news, I thought Chatterbox would have made a lovely Chaser. RIP.

    Terrible news. Little Bob's Worth fantastic win in the Lexus would have proved nice consolation for the owners though.
