Default Laminitis claims Pleasant Tap, 23

One of my absolute favorites racehorses.. And under-appreciated as a sire of durable, staying runners.

Terrible news, and laminitis once again. I always get excited when I hear his name in a pedigree. You just hope those genes carry on. We could do with more of his kind out there.

I was a huge Pleasant Colony fan, and by extension, Pleasant Tap. Think Pleasantly Perfect is the only Pleasant Colony still standing these days.
