From Ashley:
Sadly All’s Fair (Bert) passed away Monday June 11th due to complications from recent colic surgery. He was 20 years young. Owned and ridden by Ashley MacVaugh, he was truly “the horse of the lifetime.” He placed 5th at the Pan American Games in 2003, completed the Rolex 4 star, a record six times (including the modified 2004 Olympic division), and also finished 36th at Burghley (England) in 2004 in extremely wet, difficult conditions. He was quite the pony character and all 16.0 hands of him was a big personality. He will surely be remembered for all his exciting antics in the cross country warmup. I miss him dearly and am grateful to have had such a wonderful partner.
