RIP Sunburnt Land (AUS)

Special mention today to the lovely, honest horse 'Sunburnt Land (AUS) who was tragically struck by lightning last night in his paddock in outer Melbourne and died. The Scenic (IRE) 5 year old gelding earned almost $380,000 in his brief career, highlighted by a win in the Gr 2 Caulfield Sprint only 1 month ago.
Sunburnt Land (AUS) had been sent for a short spell after finishing third to Swick in last Saturday's Group One Patinack Farm Classic (1200m) at Flemington. At his previous start he finished a luckless third to Hot Danish in the Salinger Stakes at Flemington on Derby Day.
A Group 1 win was not far away for this luckless galloper, however it was not to be with the tragic news this morning. I for one will miss this emerging galloper.
