    Oh no. I follow Mouses horses but didn’t know this had happened. RIP

    Poor lad … nasty fall … I saw him trying to get up and so hoped he would. Once more I heard no mention on Racing TV and nothing in race reports … much sympathy for those who loved and cared for him.

    It was a strange performance. He was a well supported favourite, and I expected him to make all. He did make the lead only to very quickly relinquish it again. I wonder if he had some sort of problem prior to the collapse.

    I think he was quite a quirky character who either felt like racing or downed tools ( the sort of horse I always like).

    I always feel sad, especially for connections, when a horse like Foxy Jacks who has run in the National dies shortly afterwards, perhaps in its next race. In the last couple of years this has happened to both The Big Dog and Class Conti. RIP Foxy Jacks.
