Multiple graded stakes winner Banned was euthanized on Saturday, about one week after he underwent surgery to repair fractured sesamoids in his right front ankle. he was injured during a workout on the Santa Anita Park turf course.

Glen Hill Farm President Craig Bernick posted the news on his personal Twitter account. Throughout the ordeal, Bernick has kept fans abreast of Banned’s condition through the social networking website.

“Heavy hearted to report that Banned didn’t make it,” Bernick wrote. “He ended up foundering in his good foot this morning, and we did what’s right for him.”

Trained by Tom Proctor, Banned posted five wins, one second, and two thirds in ten starts and earned $599,476. He won three graded stakes this season as a three-year-old this season—the Del Mar Derby (G2), American Turf Stakes (G2) and Jefferson Cup Stakes (G2), the latter two races at Churchill Downs.

Bred in Kentucky by Ken and Sarah Ramsey, Banned is out of the winning Capote mare Cardinelli.

RIP beautiful boy. I want to thank his connections for at least giving him a chance and for letting him go when the time came. He was so young, so beautiful and so talented. It hurts.
