This morning the tragic news came that one of the best stallions the world has ever seen, Ready Cash, had passed away due to colics. He was trained by Philippe Allaire and Thierry Duvaldestin, won 40 of 70 races, including the Prix d’Amerique twice, and earned almost €4,3 million, at the time the richest  French trotter in history. He has been more than outstanding as sire, the most famous of his offspring are  Bold Eagle and Face Time Bourbon who also won the biggest Franch race twice each, and Readly Express who won once. Ready Cash also had a handful of foals in the USA, Back Of The Neck and Ready For Moni. Several of his sons also have a very strong start as stallions.

Ready Cash’s death is a huge loss for trotting world wide.
