Rahy has died

Postby Firebrand » Thu Sep 22, 2011 11:16 am

Prolific Sire and Broodmare Sire Rahy Dies at Age 26
It is with heavy hearts that Robert and Blythe Clay’s Three Chimneys Farm announces the passing of longtime stallion-turned-pensioner Rahy due to the infirmities of old age.

Rahy will be buried in the Three Chimneys stallion cemetery. Visitors are welcome to come pay their respects either by appointment or during the farm’s annual fall open house, scheduled for Wednesday, November 2 from 10:00am-1:00pm.

A beautiful little horse, and a fine sire. I'm glad I had the chance to see him while he was still with us.

Will certainly live on as a great BMS.

He has Fantastic Light in Japan, but who else to carry on the line?

There is Lewis Michael, but I don't have the highest of expectations from him. (hoping I am wrong)

RIP, Rahy.

Glad to have one of your daughter's kids in the broodmare band . . .

Small but mighty.

I didn't think Fantastic Light was that bad of a sire but he's in Japan now :(
