BERNSTEIN, SIRE OF 16 G1 WINNERS DIES OCTOBER 23rd, 2011
Castleton Lyons announced that Bernstein was euthanized earlier today due to complications from colic. Shane Ryan, president of Castleton Lyons said “today is a very sad day for all of us on the farm as Bernstein was a very special stallion that in an all too brief career at stud has sired top class horses throughout the world. I would like to thank Doctors, Nathan Slovis, Laura Werner and Dwayne Rodgerson of Hagyard Equine Medical Institute, and the management and staff of Castleton Lyons for their great efforts to try and save Bernstein today. I would also like to thank all of our clients that supported this stallion and I would hope that Bernstein’s influence in the bloodstock world will be felt for many years to come”
