Not sure what happened here – this horse fell independently at the same hurdle as Tippmanboy. It was a heavy fall and I’m sure I saw him get up and run over the line. He was said to be ok. RP this morning however records it as a fatal injury and the race winning trainer offers his condolences to connections. Only 5 years old.
Gutted to see Bingo’s name on here. I, too, thought he was okay having seen him gallop past the winning post following his independent fall at the final flight. I met Bingo when I visited my syndicate horse at Noel Williams’ yard and he was such a sweetie. He loved to lick the salt off people’s hands; I’ve not washed my ‘horsey’ jacket since he slobbered on the sleeve. Rest in peace lovely Bingo. :’-(
