RIP Victory Salute. A very sad way to loose such a great horse.

His name is perhaps not the first name to come into your head when thinking of great modern DR horses, but apart from the best Aus placing at the WEG ever, he has given the sport locally a major boost - you can make it to the big stage from Australia.

ETS - You may notice that the article is no longer online. This would be becasue it appears to be a hoax/mis-communication. Sorry for posting/confusing everyone.

Apparently, Victory Slaute is still alive. He is unwell and they are unsure what is wrong but now where near the PTS stage.

Teach me to check my sources!

He is still alive at the moment, according to Bretts FB update an hour ago.
