Grandson of Seattle Slew euthanized

Associated Press

STARKVILLE, Miss. — Minister Slew, a grandson of 1977 Triple Crown winner Seattle Slew, has been euthanized after fracturing a leg during a sudden thunderstorm.

David Christiansen says Minister Slew was alone in his paddock on July 11 when he apparently was spooked or took a misstep during the storm. Christiansen is assistant professor of pathobiology and population medicine with Mississippi State's College of Veterinary Medicine. The announcement came in a news release this week.

Minister Slew was donated to the MSU equine program by his owners in 2002. His stud fee was $1,000.

A Kentucky partnership purchased Minister Slew for $500,000 in 2000. A foot problem made him unsuitable for future racing but was not expected to affect his offspring.
