Oh that's absolutely devastating! I was hoping to put my mare to him next year. How tragic for his owner. My thoughts are with her xxx

That is terribly sad. His owner posts on here and I think there is at least one forum 'baby' of his due this year

We have a TB due to him 15th of March & she started bagging up Thursday, so fingers crossed all goes well for them both.

How terribly sad. He really came across as a lovely stallion who was very, very well loved by his humans.
Good luck for a healthy mare and baby for you

Heartbreaking for all concerned. He was an amazing stallion with a fantastic temprement and attitude to life. I am lucky enough to have bred one of his babies and have to say that his temprement is hereditary! My 'baby' is now officially a yearling and is a fab wee guy. He has already won in the show ring and has been awarded a first premium from BEF as a potential event horse. All of his offspring have been doing amazingly well with 1 or 2 taking overall championships! So gutted for Sonya and her team as I know they thought the world of KCG but at least his name is living on.

OMG, am really shocked to hear this, what happened?
He really was a lovely horse-stunning and such a nice person to deal with. I just can't believe it :-(

I am very sad to hear this. King Cotton Gold has long been one of my pin ups!! He would have to have been a good age and lived a great life though. Thank you for the inspiration RIP King Cotton Gold.

He was only 13/14 so would have gone further in his eventing and stallion careers I'm sure

His stable name will be King (but the daughter is due home tonight to meet him so may be overuled). Reg name Fate's Olympic Gold, but again I suspect there will be a discussion.

I really hope that your daughter likes the idea of King as his stable name. It seems perfect for him.
