Just got some news through, a old horse who used to be on livery at ours passed away at 21:24pm tonight.
R.I.P old fella, he was Robbie's companion for about 2 months and he never used to like other horses until Robbie broke into the field with him :rolleyes:
They would follow each other anywhere and everywhere round the field, even shared the field shelter - and that was a big achievement for Saxon because he would usually kick and double barrel any horse which came near him.
He got up to the grand old age of 28, was a TB and was in light work at the time, his owner didn't get to say goodbye because she was rushing home from Ipswich and the traffic caught up with her.
I feel so bad for her because she owned him for 18 years and brought him as a nappy little sod to a dream to ride horse.
Hope to see you one day Saxon :)
Love from everyone at the yard & you will never be forgotten!
