    The multiple grade 1 winner in the USA, Devil May Care has lost her battle to cancer aged only 4.

    A tribute from John Greathouse

    “The Devil May Care Family:

    To all who have followed and been a part of Devil May Care’s racing life and her fight for life, she and I wish to thank and applaud all of you. The racing was a thrill and one not to be forgotten or dismissed out of hand. To this day I don’t believe we ever saw her best race. But that is my opinion and will be saved for my memories.

    To those who cared for her and her health, we both thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

    We tried very hard, only to be overcome by lymphosarcoma, an enemy that we couldn’t beat.

    We entered a race we couldn’t win.

    In an ironic twist, a year ago today she was busy drawing post position 11 for the 136th Kentucky Derby.

    She was our shining star…
    John Greathouse”

    So sad – with all the risks of racing and training…..and then something out of the blue… at least they tried. RIP Devil May Care
