But according to his owner, "he's got plenty of bone. , .just very correct." He's a half to McLean's Music, so they know the risks--but MM has done okay so I can see the appeal. Sort of.

G3W and young sire Speightster euthanized after suffering an irreparable injury to a hind leg in his stall. Formerly at WinStar, he arrived in Canada in January after being purchased by Jay & Christine Hayden to stand at Northern Dawn.

So sad. I wonder if he was insured. Or if Winstar would help them out at all in a goodwill gesture.Izvestia wrote: ↑Mon Feb 07, 2022 4:29 pmUgh. Really sad news.

Well, they certainly have no shortage of lighty raced stallions who will only ever stand a few seasons there. But this guy was signifigant pedigree wise to the Canadian market too. A real shame, just a few weeks out from the start of covering season too.Squeaky wrote: ↑Mon Feb 07, 2022 5:05 pmSo sad. I wonder if he was insured.

It's insane that horses are so powerful that kicking a wall while frolicking can break their own legs.

You literally could wrap them in bubble wrap and they'll still find a way to kill themselves. We have a horse who is kind of a huge jerk and kicks the walls whenever he is pissed (always) and has literally knocked an entire 8 foot by 12 foot tongue and groove partition wall out of the metal slats that held it in place.

Speightster had just been transferred to this new farm, and I wonder if he was upset from being in a new, strange-smelling stall.

Crowding the edges of a small ring full of agitated stallion is a risky choice. I remember the video of a young Slim Shadey NAILING a cameraman right in the middle of his lens when being walked around a saddling paddock in Britain. With a perfectly-aimed hind leg.
Horses are amazingly accurate when they want to be.
