Snoring horse has life-saving operation

A horse renowned for its "foghorn" snoring is breathing easy after a life-saving operation.

Rescue horse Rocky used to keep his stablemates awake with his ear-splitting snores.

Rocky was driving staff and fellow horses mad with his drones, which could be heard up to two fields away.

After several treatments failed to work, vets discovered a massive cyst, the size of a human hand, lodged deep in his nose.

To the relief of his owner Eileen Gillen the cyst was benign.
