Highfield Princess Dead due to stall incident.

https://www.thoroughbreddailynews.com/h ... in-stable/

“She suffered an inoperable fracture following an accident in her stable and, although over the past week she fought with the same extraordinary spirit she showed on the racecourse, last night lost her battle for life. We would like to thank Jonathan Anderson and the team at Rainbow Equine Hospital, who did everything possible to help the Princess and keep her comfortable.”

Twitter, so take it with a grain of salt, but seems like all horses have since been euthanized.

Was just told all horses have unfortunately been euthanized. My heart goes out to the entire barn and their owners.

3 horses died, 4 were transported via equine ambulance to an equine hospital. One of those that didn't make it was Darkroom, a 3yo gelded son of Enticed.

According to Katy, a young Japanese jockey died after being tossed from his mount in the 6th race yesterday.

"Nikkan Gendai: "We wanted to see you again but...May you rest in peace."

Jockey Kota Fujioka passed away yesterday at the age of 35. He was unconscious and in critical condition after he was unseated from his mount on the 6th." :cry:
