Bold Executive, a perennial leading Canadian sire, was euthanized the night of Sept. 26 at Gardiner Farms near Caledon, Ontario, Canada. The son of Bold Ruckus was 27.
“He came in from the paddock and started exhibiting shortness of breath,” said Mike Colterjohn, who manages the farm for an estate. “We realized he had a vascular accident, a leaking artery. He went quickly and quietly. We euthanized him because I didn’t want to see him in any distress once I realized something was wrong.”
Bold Executive covered 40 mares and according to Colterjohn, got 38 in foal.
