Australia’s greatest sprinter, the unbeaten Black Caviar, has sadly passed away after a short battle with laminitis.
The 18-year-old winner of all her 25 starts – 15 at Group 1 level – was humanely euthanized at the Scone Equine Hospital in NSW on Saturday morning shortly after giving foal to a Snitzel colt.
Connections released a statement to confirm the death of the horse none could beat.
An emotional trainer Peter Moody, who was at Caulfield, said that the news of her passing hit him hard.
“You don’t think it affects you,” he said. “But you are being stupid not to think it doesn’t. It’s impossible not to get attached to most animals let alone one like her.”
Moody explained there was no chance of saving the fastest horse Australasian racing has ever seen.
“She had a milk infection about a week ago and we just treated it like you do with all broodmares, But, like a lot of treatments, it went straight to her feet,” he said.
“Basically, it killed her feet.
“She had the foal this morning, a colt foal by Snitzel and they put her down shortly after that on humane grounds.
“They scanned her feet yesterday and there was no blood flow at all to her feet. There was minimum blood flow to her feet anyhow but there was none and she’s such a big girl.
“I rang all the staff and told them. They were all very upset.”
In all, Black Caviar had 25 starts over a four-year period from April, 2009 through to April, 2013.
She won in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide and famously in front of Queen Elizabeth at Royal Ascot in 2012.
Black Caviar amassed almost $8m for connections.

Hi @Halbrowne61
It’s been a while since we’ve discussed our punting, I thought you might like this one.
The pic is the last leg.
That one length cost me $4770 in yesterday’s quaddie. .
No, I am not ok. 😜🤯

I’ve got a dozen micro shares in Just Fine, running in the Cup on Tuesday. Very exciting to have a runner, even though he’s been a bit in and out.
Expected to lead and hopefully runs a good race. Fingers crossed.
