Biosecurity measures have been put in place after Rivo Boy from the Anthony Cummings stable died from an unknown illness.
“The horse had been unwell and running a fever so we were monitoring him closely but it was a shock to see him deteriorate so quickly,” Cummings told Racenet.
“In the need to comply with DPI guidelines we’ve taken blood samples which have been sent for testing.
“The rest of my stable is still operating as normal. We’ve isolated that one box until we know more.
“The blood tests will hopefully come back this afternoon and we are expecting the autopsy to reveal more in the next couple of days.”
