Sadly PTS tonight. Got cast in his stable then broke his leg. So sad.

Terrible news. The yard must be devastated. This season has been wretched for Nicky.
And we lost Elixir D’Nutz yesterday too. Horrid weekend.

Very sad news, he was due to race on Wednesday at Pubchestown. Such bad fortune to happen in the stable, what unpredictable animals we all love.

I am so so sorry for all connections and those involved in his daily care. What a blow.

 

[Chiffy]

Can’t believe it what a horse and what a terrible way to lose him.

So sad they must all be heartbroken especially considering the season they’ve had. RIP Shiskin.

How truly awful for those connected with him, on top of losing a cherished horse they will now no doubt have to deal with social media bashers saying he was PTS because he wasn't worth fixing if he wasn't likely to win again for them or that they would prefer the insurance money than paying to fix him. RIP shishkin you were a character and a half! Condolences to all those connected with you x
