    Oh; just read this.Sad as I get when I hear of the passing of an old favourite, this is a floods of tears moment. Not a long enough retirement for the dear horse. Does anyone have a contact address for his owners? I spoke to them when he ran in the Gold Cup and I know how much they adored him [as did I]. Thanks for the wonderful memories Grey Abbey.

    Too, too sad. Broke my heart to see his name here. Does anyone know what was wrong with him to cause his so young death?
