    Very sad to read on Alan King’s website that Salden Licht has been put down having suffered a very serious ‘suspensory’ injury whilst running in a jumpers’ bumper at Kempton Park on 25 January.

    They had hoped to save him, although he would not have raced again, but it was not to be. :cry:

    I suppose that means yet another tendon failure :(

    RIP to him and all the others who have lost their lives to what I really believe are inbred weaknesses. Seems there are more these days than are lost to falling injuries. RIP to them too, of course.

    :cry: :cry: :cry: It’s becoming too depressing.

    Very sad news..it’s very hard to come to this thread each week and even more worrying that so many horses appear day by day, but the least we can do is pay a last respect to the ongoing bravery of the horse..RIP dear Salden Licht :cry:

    Things turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...

    Suspensory injuries refer to ligaments:
