Withdrawn and put to sleep following a stalls accident at Carlisle last Wednesday apparently. 2 year old and it was his first ever race (or rather, it wasn’t). R.I.P.
This is the sort of event that’s just very upsetting. I know our stalls are very narrow and noisy and I wonder if the poor horse had had any stalls experience. I know some trainers spend time getting their young horses used to the stalls but I don’t know if they all do. I don’t know what happened in this particular incident, but I dread to think what was going through this young horses head. He was just a baby. It’s just heartbreaking.
