Plum Pretty, winner of the 2011 Kentucky Oaks, has died at age 16, Gainesway Farm reported in a press release on Monday. A cause of death was not given for the daughter of Medaglia d’Oro, who was boarded at Gainesway for owner Mandy Pope.
"She was a pleasure to be around and always a great mom," Pope said in the release. "We are blessed to have several fillies out of her still to race and one that has already produced a foal. The colts have gone on to secondary careers in the show world and have her awesome personality."
