Canât click the âlikeâ, but thanks for posting the cause.
Article from The Racing Post:
So she had a foal? Wonder what the foalâs status is.
He survived.
I believe the foal is fine. They kept her alive until he was here.
I hope she did not suffer a lot, keeping her alive until she foaled.
Incredibly sad.
She always gave everything. And after 25 wins and nine foals⊠She literally did.
Such a heart breaker. God speed Black Caviar.
The foal has died.
Very sad news.
Does anyone know how her previous offspring did at the track?
The amount of absolute sanctimonious bullsh!t being posted by people who wouldnât know a horse from a hamster - murdered, raped, abused - is mind boggling.
ABC - our left wing media - posted an entire article decrying the fact she was twitched during breeding, implying that in doing so she was forcibly raped and abused. They didnât give a toss about any other factoid of the horse industry⊠just that twitch, and the fact that her colts would also go on to âcoverâ (rape - that is the exact implication) mares.
FFS.
Nothing. Not one has been any good.
Her owners kept all her foals. One went to auction and they bought her back.
Interesting. And a little odd? I would have thought they would breed her to the very best.
Thanks.
She wasnât necessarily bred to did studsâŠ.
Most really good race mares donât reproduce themselves, unfortunately.
This article has not updated that her recent foal out of Snitzel has died
Sorry to hear that her story wonât have one final chapter. Godspeed to both of them.
I am really curious. Did they c-section this foal? One article that I read said that a drug that they had given the mare for âmilk feverâ likely caused the laminitis. Was the foal to term? I ask because allowing the mare to be in pain would be hideous, but losing both would have been awful. And now, it is.
It was so sad to read of Black Caviarâs passing. I know she was being used as a broodmare, but does 9 foals seem a bit much? It would have been nice if she could of had some time to just be a horse and not have to carry another foal all the time. It would seem that after all she did on the track, the owners could have eased up a bit on the breeding of her. Sad to lose her for sure.
