The link may or may not load quickly because I suspect the site is overwhelmed as this news is just breaking. Sheikh Mohammed's eldest and owner of Zabeel Racing, Sheikh Rashid, died of a heart attack at 34. I'm assuming some sort of family history or a birth defect since he was so young. I'm not sure we'll get more clarification on this point, but I'm sure Bloodhorse will give us some sort of update soon.

wow! it's always hard to fathom something like that happening to one so young, but it does happen....strokes as well.
my condolences to his family. a loss of a child is the worst burden any parent can bear.
