Despretly seeking history on my late horse

[tinkandlily]

Danny was a well built 16.2 chestnut thoroughbred between 16-25 years old( most likely over 20). He had a white sock on his nearhind leg and bad cracks in his hooves. His front legs bent forward due to arthiritis. He had a white blaze that ended in a pink snip on his nose and a dent in his neck( a profits thumb mark) He had an extremly good temperment but he did weve in his stable and lift a front leg, and pin his ears back when brought his food. He was good to load but when in the trailer/box he would weve badly and sweat up. He was bought from an auction about 5 years ago on his last legs and without a passport, he is belived to have raced. Unfortunally he had to be put down because of his problems but i want to find out where he came from and what he did, if anyone has any info at all, good or bad,:confused or ideas as to how i can find out anything, pleses let me know. I have absolutly no history,

If you can put up a photograph of him and the auction he came through then that is a start. Did you rescue him? Good for you.

i dont know how to load one up one up but ill try. I think he came from beeston horse market, if not there then i think there was an other one in cheshire he could have came from. I live in manchester and he didn't come from too far away, defo not as far as london. Yes i did rescue him, the woman that bought him thought she get a cheap horse going to the meatman, fatten him up and sell him on for a profit like she did with ponies but she didnt have the experiance to handle a bigun, i felt sorry for him and bought him and we had two very happy years together before he went downhill, i then had him put down by injection while i held him, much better than being killed in a strange place.
