    Its my understanding that Alan Kings Katchit has had to be put down due to a bout of colic.

    Sad to hear, had the heart of a lion. Will always have fond memories of the horse after 2 gutsy festival wins, granted his Champion Hurdle win may have in a sub standard year, but you still need to win it regardless of the competition

    Very sad to hear this, a tenacious little thing who often ran above expectations and did his connections proud. Sad loss.

    I think Choc Thorntons words sum it up perfectly.
