Two Racing Horses Passed Away

Last week, two big names among the horses that are racing for money have lost their lives, one from an injury that was too serious and has taken his toll in the horse’s life, and the other one of old age, Jackpot Bet Online champion of the 1996. Let’s start with the less important, Trading Leather, the Irish Derby winner, who died soon after he participated in the Japan Cup and Jackpot Bet Online blew an injury. The horse, Jackpot Bet Online who won the Irish Derby, passed away after suffering a serious leg fracture while running in the Group One of the Japan Cup.

He was four years old, and he pulled out, leaving space for Epiphaneia to win the race. His trainer and Jockey Jim Bolger commented that his horse Trading Leather had a great career, and as a highlight to that was the Irish Derby victory. It is a very sad loss for the Jim’s staff, as he was an important figure in their team. On that race Epiphanea took the No.1 place, with Just A Way and Spielber on the second and third position while the 2012 and 2013 vicotirGentildonna on the fourth place rode by British jockey Ryan Moore.
