Jet





Please include this memorial of one of the most fantastic horses that I will ever have the great fortune to own. He came to me just over a month ago as an ex-racehorse that had run on the track the weekend before I got him. I began to work with him and became so close to his physical beauty and his amazing temperament. Although I have had my eight other horses for longer, Jet was as much part of the family as any of the others and will always be remembered as such.

He contracted tetanus despite being vaccinated in one of the most unlucky rare cases around.  So began the struggle to keep him alive and I stayed with him day and night following diagnosis. He had the most amazing team of people caring for him and willing him on so strongly and we were told yesterday that he probably would be fine. Unfortunately, this was not the case, and at 5:40 this morning, so began the hardest struggle of our lives that culminated in him losing his.

He was so precious and will never ever be forgotten or replaced in any way and I hope wherever he is, he knows I am always thinking of him. So little time, such a magnificent horse.
