Died as a result of a heavy fall during the Novices’ Selling Hurdle at Exeter this afternoon. I always think that a different job should already have been found for those who are running in lowly graded selling races.
RIP Artisan
I share about the same thoughts Jane. The horse ran last time on the 28th of December 2012 in a hurdle race. About 27 months!!! If you don’t know what the horse is able to perform just leave it alone. Don’t start a new experiment in a discipline it already has failed at. Though there might be no bad intention behind that unfortunately a lot of horses lose their lives under similar circumtances.
