Senorita Ends Tragically for Winner Bobina
By Jack Shinar Updated: Saturday, May 5, 2012 6:21 PM Posted: Saturday, May 5, 2012 6:15 PM The $100,000 Senorita Stakes (gr. III) ended tragically for the victorious Bobina, who broke down a stride past the wire and was euthanized May 5 at Betfair Hollywood Park. Bobina fractured the fetlock of her right foreleg, according to racetrack officials. Jockey Victor Espinoza was thrown as the filly went down. He was able to rise on his own power after a few minutes but took off his next two mounts. The 3-1 second choice in the field of seven sophomore fillies, Bobina was making her stakes debut in the one-mile turf event. The Malibu Moon filly, trained by A.C. Avila for owner/breeder Haras Santa Maria de Araras, rallied from last at the half-mile pole to win by a nose over My Gi Gi. The final time was 1:35.18. Bobina won all three of her starts, beginning her career March 31 with a 2 1/4-length victory over maidens on the turf Santa Anita Park. She returned April 13 with a half-length triumph in an off-the-turf allowance heat at Santa Anita. Rallying four-wide into the stretch, Bobina won with strong urging from Espinoza and was under a full drive to the wire when she bumped slightly with My Gi Gi late and fell. Jockey Kevin Krigger, aboard My Gi Gi, claimed foul against the winner but it was disallowed by stewards. British-bred Byrama finished third under Jose Valdivia Jr., one length behind the first two. Irish-bred Graser finished fourth as the slight 2-1 favorite. Then came Via Villaggio, followed by pacesetters Belle Passe and Light of Life, who vied through fractions of :23.89, :47.52, and 1:22.94 before giving way. Bobina, who is out of the Dynaformer mare Maliziosa, paid $8, $4.60, $3.40. My Gi Gi returned $8.80 and $4.60. The exacta was worth $72.80. Byrama paid $3. Copyright © 2012 Blood-Horse Publications.

Graded Stakes Winner Bet On Sunshine Dies
Bet On Sunshine, who made it a habit of winning the same stakes more than once for owner David P. Holloway, was euthanized May 4 because of complication from old age. The 20-year-old Bet Big gelding had spent the last eight years at Hermitage Farm near Goshen, Ky. A Midwest-based runner trained by Paul McGee, Bet On Sunshine won three runnings of both the Arlington Sprint Handicap and the Holiday Cheer Stakes, and two runnings of the Aristides Handicap (gr. III), the Phoenix Breeders’ Cup Stakes (once gr. III), the Holiday Cheer Stakes, the Marfa Stakes, and the Don Bernhardt Stakes. He placed in multiple runnings of the Breeders’ Cup Sprint (gr. I), the Phoenix Breeders’ Cup (once gr. III), and the Aristides. He raced until 10 and was retired with a record of 22-7-10 from 47 starts and earnings of $1,449,882. Bred in Florida by Janet Gomez, Bet On Sunshine was out of the winning In Reality mare My Own Sunshine. . Copyright © 2012 Blood-Horse Publications. All rights reserved internationally.

First Order.
He was 11. He seems like he had a pretty nice start to his career... back in 2003.  He died at Lingfield, in his 89th start, at odds of 33/1. It was his first start in just about 2 years. The last time he won was in 2008. Poor guy.

Arcadius Dies After Winning Iroquois 'Chase
By Blood-Horse Staff Posted: Saturday, May 12, 2012 7:54 PM Arcadius collapsed and died as he was being cooled down after winning the $150,000 Iroquois Steeplechase (NSA-I) May 12 at Percy Warner Park in Nashville, Tenn. The Associated Press reported that the 8-year-old Giant's Causeway gelding collapsed at a station placed just beyond the finish line of the 3-mile race. Dr. Marty McInturff, one of five official veterinarians on the course, said Arcadius succumbed from "a heart attack'' and a possible aneurysm. The results of a necropsy examination are expected May 14 at the earliest. Trained by Jonathan Sheppard for Hudson River Farms, Arcadius was ridden by Brian Crowley. The bay was racing for the first time since finishing third in the Colonial Hurdle Stakes (NSA-I) last November at Camden. He won the 2010 Helen Haskell Sampson Hurdle Stakes (NSA-I) at Monmouth Park. Arcadius compiled a 6-5-4 career ecord in 20 races with earnings of more than $300,000.

Woodbourne, today at Churchill.
I was a huge fan. I am so sorry for his connections, groom, everyone who had anything to do with him. Confirmed on twitter by Byron King. Happier days... (well you have to scroll down but there's a very sweet picture of him). http://www.tripledeadheat.ca/2010/09...oments-at.html Last edited by my miss storm cat : 05-18-2012 at 09:42 PM.

Brindisi Breeze killed in accident
(UKPA) – 12 hours ago Cheltenham Festival winner Brindisi Breeze has died following a freak accident. The six-year-old gelding was killed after jumping out of his paddock during the night at Scottish trainer Lucinda Russell's stables and reportedly being struck by a tanker. Brindisi Breeze gave Russell and jockey Campbell Gillies their first success at jumps racing's premier meeting in the Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle in March and looked to have a bright future. The trainer said in a statement posted on www.lucindarussell.com: "Brindisi Breeze was tragically killed last night. At 2.30am he jumped out of his paddock and was hit by a tanker. He died instantly. "Brindisi Breeze was Scotland's first Cheltenham Festival winner for 10 years when winning the Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle decisively last March. "He will be sorely missed by the whole yard and especially his sporting owner Sandy Seymour, who adored his horse. "To go from the pride of standing at Cheltenham watching Brindisi and Campbell stride up the hill to victory to the devastation of today's bizarre incident leaves me deeply saddened. "With the love and the care that is given to these wonderful athletes, to lose any of them is difficult, but when it is a horse who has achieved so much in his short life it is deeply upsetting. It will be hard to overcome. "Here at Arlary we have a strong team of owners, horses and staff who have all been affected by Brindisi's greatness and his loss. "Each one of us have special memories of him, and we will never forget his kind, honest nature and his untapped talent."
