I'm poor at reading Spanish, but it looked like the cause was colic. Such a handsome boy. :cry:
Hate colic. Almost as much as laminitis. :evil:

Miss H, a neglected 24yo mare who was rescued from a feedlot 2 days ago by R.A.C.E. Fund but could not be saved. She was by Devil’s Bag out of Dancing Heroine. She produced 11 foals, most recently a colt by Mr. Sekiguchi in 2016 named Morwen. May she rest in peace. She deserved better.

Sad. She looked tired and defeated. For those who allowed this to happen, one can only hope that a day of reckoning is in the cards. Rest well, Miss H.

Spooky Mulder, 24. Tweet from Teresa Genero (@BklynBackstretch):

“Spooky had been living a great life in MD with a woman who adored him. I visited them several times—he was happy & healthy. Slipped on an icy patch & broke his shoulder. Sally wanted desperately to save him but did the right & humane thing.”

Spooky was a SW who raced until he was 11. He made 85 starts, winning 34 times and earning over $950K.
