Pipe heartbroken after death of Adagio

Adagio has died after suffering a fatal heart attack on the gallops on Thursday morning.

The five-year-old Grade One-winning hurdler was due to run in the Cesarewitch at Newmarket on Saturday. It would have been his first on the Flat since joining David Pipe two years ago.

As a four-year-old Adagio won the Grade One Finale Juvenile Hurdle at Chepstow and finished second in the Triumph Hurdle at Cheltenham.
