Freda Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 What a horror year for the Lindsays....it couldn't get any worse, could it? Hopefully some successes on the track with their own stock might brighten things up for them, and all the stud workers/employees too.

The Centaur Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Three stallions dead in not much more than 3 months. Coincidence? Certainly needs some sort of independent enquiry. At least a full explanation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomass Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Twisted bowel? They've pretty much got any feeding regimes for travelling horses sorted...unlucky ...laminitis? Could happen anytime but spring can be a problem...unlucky... Paddock accident? There's a lot of new building going on there and could 'excite' in certain instances...unlucky Waikato Stud have a fairly new treadmill which they get their Studs on...you can't beat that to keep them fit and take any spunk off them...maybe CS have one? Im betting Lindsey and Plumtree are going over the entire sad 'unluckys' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tavistock had a paddock accident first. I would guess that that injury restricted blood flow to the lower leg hence laminitis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freda Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Burgundy had laminitis, Chief....don't think Tavistock did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The report just said secondary complications following surgery in relation to the paddock accident. The fact that they brought in Ric Redden from the US suggests to me that may well have been laminitis. The original injury was to a forefoot and sole as I recall. A second surgery was performed after Ric had returned to the US as I understand. Edited December 23, 2019 by curious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shad Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 From what I know about laminitis it is usually secondary, and I dont think alot Is known about it, been many a horse met its demise from it, just read about a top liner in America that fell victim to it, very sad to lose tavistock, been a very good sire and left winners far and wide.

jess Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Best of care - best of facilities - and still these things happen. Horses eh. Just an awful year for Cambridge Stud and I wish them all the best and a change of fortunes in 2020. J. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest CrossCodes Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 Makes you wonder if the horses there now are getting the same treatment and care they were before under the previous owners, 3 dead in a short space of time must make you ask questions surely??

Andy my son in law (thats Campbell) the trainer, showed me the pictures, bloody bad . They bought in an expert from Kentucky to try to repair it (twice) and it looked like he would recover. Seems that failed. Very sad for all concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Beau Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Now I could be wrong, but I think I heard that he was put down because of laminitis in his good hoof. (The un-injured one). That would be caused, because the good foot was taking all the pressure since the injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting they had a "wire fence" in a Stallion paddock?? Maybe it was a temporary transitional one.. Wire and Stallions simply do not mix...
