She likely deserves her own thread due to her fame, but legendary mare Black Caviar has passed at 17 due to laminitis :(

How sad, she was something special. I wish they would find a cure for this horrible sickness.

So sad to hear this. If anyone sees any news or images of her foal I would appreciate it.

That and colic. It sounds like her laminitis came on hard and fast due to that milk fever.

Prudenzia (Dansili), dam of G1Ws Magic Wand and Chicquita, had the sale topper at Arqana August today when her filly by St. Mark’s Basilica sold for €1.7 million to Coolmore. The filly is her SEVENTH seven-figure yearling to sell at Arqana August.

'We knew she was special' - St Mark's Basilica filly tops Arqana as Coolmore strike winning bid at €1.7 million

I love that she has her own little herd of ponies/minis to keep her company. :mrgreen:
