Ubetshedid, dam of the popular millionaire gelding Best Pal, was euthanized at Golden Eagle Farms on Sept. 12 at the age of 23, the California Thoroughbred Breeders Association has announced. The King Pellinore mare was euthanized due to declining health.
Ubetshedid's most successful foal was Best Pal, the California-bred Habitony gelding who attained hero status in his home state. Best Pal won 17 stakes, including six Grade 1 races, and earned more than $5.6 million from 1990-96.
