Sadly a fatality in the 1.20 at Doncaster today when ridden by runner-up specialist Brian Hughes (no blame on him). I don’t think that the initial fall killed him, but he was hit very hard by another horse while trying to get up. ATR of course mentioned that all three fallers got up okay.
A pretty decent horse and in great form, but nevertheless a very sad ending to him.
ATR showed a picture of all 3 who came to grief at the 8th standing together, being held by handlers so the assumption was correct. Sad to read otherwise. RIP.
