That's sad - will have to break the news gently to one his relatives on our yard - Norman is 23 too and looked quite a lot like It's Otto. For a while Norm even had the nickname "I can't believe it's not Otto" however, Norman hated jumping LOL.

Have to say was surprised to read Otto was 23 I'd have thought he'd be older than that.
 
It is very sad but at least he enjoyed a good retirement with lots of the fuss and attention that he loved. I understand that the decision had to be taken yesterday to save him any suffering. He was the same age as Geoff's eldest son James. He leaves us with so many fond memories.
 
How sad, one of the great horses of my time, glad to have seen him at a demo once, although I would have thought him older, RIP Otto
 
A partnership of magnificent characters - Geoff and It's Otto. Truly awesome to watch. RIP Otto and to Geoff, condolences for the loss of your much-loved partner.
