Against all odds Hay List returned to racing after suffering from a fractured knee following a colic surgery in 2012. He was later retired in October 2013 due to long standing issues with his hind foot and the development of a respiratory noise while galloping.

In January 2014 Hay List again defied the medical text books by making a full recovery from a second colic surgery during which his entire caecum had to be removed.

Hay List was euthanised on 3 February 2015 after suffering from laminitis.{{cite web|title=Black Caviar's greatest rival, Hay List, dies|url=http://www.smh.com.au/sport/horseracing/black-caviars-greatest-rival-hay-list-dies-20150203-135bn6.html|website=Sydney Morning Herald|accessdate=3 February 2015}} He was 9 years old.
