Silviniaco Conti

Sadly, Paul Nicholls has confirmed that this great little warrior has died aged just 12 following a team chasing accident on Sunday.

Condolences to everyone who looked after him while he was at Ditcheat and Charlotte Alexander who had him following his retirement from racing.

I was very sad to read this earlier, he really was a gorgeous horse, he was so genuine and always tried his best.

How sad, a fantastic horse.

 

[KautoStar1]

Sad news indeed. Never quite got the recognition he deserved as slightly in the shadows of KS and The Tank.

 

[Clodagh]

He was a lovely horse, and so sad, but what a fabulous life.

 

[Chiffy]

So sad, a lovely horse.

 

[HappyHorses:)]

So sad. He looked to be loving his new team chasing lifestyle as well.

It was an almost impossible task to fill the gap that Kauto and Denman left behind but he made a pretty good job of it.
He was in the RoR parade at Cheltenham only last month and was looking great.

Sad to read this, he was a great horse and just glad he had an enjoyable if short “retirement”
