Tragic news yesterday from the Mick Price and Michael Kent Jr stable with the loss of stable star I’m Thunderstruck due to a post-surgical complication resulting in him being euthanised.
The $8million earning gelding had undergone routine minor surgery to remove a small chip on a fetlock and suffered a catastrophic injury in recovery, which is rare, but not uncommon.
