Posted - 11 Jul 2009 : 7:51:07 PM It is with total shock and desolation that I announce that my beautiful gelding 'Aybac' was put to sleep last night. Following a problematic week Jack had surgery yesterday afternoon but was simply too tired to fight to survive.
Words cannot express the hole left by him but I will always be grateful to the time I had with my amazing boy. He was my first pure bred and has truly been a horse in a million.
We have shared fantastic times together with highlights being Ridden Supreme at Northern group, 7th at HOYS and 2nd BAC, all in 2007.
Many thanks must go to Mark Hardcastle who I bought him off, and Mike Johnson who put us in touch in the first place. I'm eternally grateful.
Thanks to all of you that have ever been a fan of my beautiful boy, your kind words will stay with me forever, as will my brilliant memories of him.
RIP sweet pea, miss you always. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx |

Posted - 17 Jul 2009 : 8:27:40 PM I would just like to say a huge thankyou to the many people, friends and strangers, who have sent messages, cards, flowers etc this week. Your response has been truly overwhelming and although many more tears have been shed, your kindness has helped immensely. It has been really comforting to know that so many people admired our boy and I am so proud to have owned a horse that obviously made such an impression to people.
This week has been very difficult but we are trying to remember the fab times as I'm sure that's what Jack would want.
Thanks again guys. Hopefully see you at Malvern.
Lots of love Ali, Jill and Bob. xxxxxxxxxxx [http://www.flickr.com/photos/40600007@N08/3730440300/?eOrig=3730430966]

Posted - 12 Jul 2009 : 10:05:43 PM I am still so shocked to believe it has happened, words can not explain how I feel for your pain and lose. It was very clear to see what a great partnership you both had. I am sure you will never replace such a great horse but hope in time you can remember what you both achieved together. I am sure he is watching down on you R.I.P Aybac x
