At age 7, Five Steps made a third bid in the Maryland Million Classic this year (he finished second in the 2007 Classic and third in 2005) but exited the race with bone chips. Surgery was successful, and Five Steps went home to recover, then contracted a still-undetermined illness and was euthanized early this month.

Anyone who follows racing in Japan knows this name.....
Eye Popper, a grand old gentleman, was euthanized today. ******* laminitis. Off the top of my head (cause there's no article on the JRA site yet), I believe he ran in the Tenno Sho four times, he ran in the Caulfield Cup (he was 2nd to Railings), the Melbourne Cup (didn't do well), won the Hanshin Daishoten last year in his second attempt... he was 8 years old and had a lot of fans. Here's his last race (from October 12th)... the Kyoto Daishoten (G2). He was 3rd. http://www.jra.go.jp/JRADB/asx/2008/...804080211h.asx edit - Okay well the race is here cause this link won't work. http://www.derbytrail.com/forums/sho...per#post438964 Poor guy. Good night good boy.

Handicappy posted this on the Cigar thread but he needs to be here too.
Wanderin Boy. A gallant gentleman who was adored by his fans and very much loved by his connections. A real shame. http://www.drf.com/news/article/100256.html
