Tulenos Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 One of my most favourite horses in training, Ei Ei, died today after suffering a crashing fall (in the last flight after being 25 lengths clear). Also came from a small yard and was by far their main star. A natural racer and a trier too. Very sad news indeed.:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seen2001 Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 Ei Ei's tragical demise He was one of my favourites too. Absolute tragedy, he was a real battler and such a genuine front-runner. Terrible news. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WorkingForTheEnemy Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 Ei Ei's tragical demise A great shame indeed. A horse I always felt must have lived his life very confused. One week he'd be over the hurdles, the next on the flat and then he'd find himself chasing. A great show to be able to compete well at all 3 disciplines. Very sad and greatly missed.

Tommo Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 re Damn, the poor thing i had him as my reserve as well, it seems to sink in more when you put money on them.....going off track a bit but the worst fatality with a horse i ever saw was..in fact two...... was Brown Chamberlain having a heart attack and Childown breaking a leg...i love horses and hate to seem them go that way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
