Didn't Panther Mountain go to Brazil?
This is who we were wondering about! We cannot find anything on Panther Mountain. I wasn't sure if he had died or if he went to Brazil. |

Panther Mountain was sold to Brazil in 2008. |

| Brisco County Jr, Plain Eye Opening both went. Brazil doesn’t have the veterinarian medicine that we do. Nor the surgical facilities. It seems like they have a lot more diseases there too. I’m pretty sure Royal Quick Dash went there. Holland Ease did double time here and in Brazil. |

Excuse my ignorance, but why is it that these outstanding studs are having a hard time staying alive once they leave? And why are they going there anyway?
A lot of these horses that we heard of dying in Brazil were not exactly young when they were sold and shipped. If you are tracking horses that are 18+ years or older and their death rates it's always going to be higher even if they were being sold within the US. Holland Ease, Dash For Perks - not exactly "spring chickens". It's not very good business to buy high dollar horses and ship them only to have them die within months. |

On The Money Red went there too. Doubt he's still alive. He could barely walk after being there only a short time.
OTMR died of cancer at danny's. Designer Red was the one who went to brazil. Yes I saw that video of him & it made me sick. Made me sick that danny sold him to. Personally I would of kept that horse forever. But some people care more about a buck than I do
A story I hate......Ferdinand won the Kentucky Derby in 1986 with Willie Shoemaker on board. It was a masterful race. Ferdinand was sold to a Japanese interest, shipped to Japan, and after he lost his usefulness went to a slaughterhouse. Keep these great horses America.
That's why I hate that California Chrome went to Japan.
California Chrome's sale contract included a clause that he will return to the USA to live out his retirement. A lesson was definitely learned due to the Fernindand slaughter experience. |
