According to his pedigree page:

The other horse that pulled up at almost the same time, Blackbriar, was not so fortunate. He was euthanized due to a fractured sesamoid.

Uh, I'd guess you're teasing me about my rant on injured sires. Bummer that he got hurt . . . but his sireline and family are relatively free of injury and high on starts according to my own research so I might look the other way in his case. :wink:

No tease. I blame this injury on pro-ride. Just being a wiseacre because I know you're dipping your toe in on ownership and thought it was a funny thought, you going right to standing stallions.
