    Sorry to report further carnage today, this time at Market Rasen. Midnight Choice was pulled up on the run-in when in fourth place during a Handicap Hurdle having sustained a fatal injury. RIP.

    Very sad scenes there.

    There seemed to be quite a few youngsters on the rails near the post where Midnight Choice came to a halt, so I hope they won’t be having nightmares tonight. :(

    RIP

    I heard Midnight Choice haemorrhaged. James Evans is another trainer who seems to really care about his horses.

    Very sad. Especially on the "Midnight Club’s" second birthday :(

    So sad, feared the worst when I heard the commentary, and then even worse when I seen him approach the line.

    I hope he didn’t suffer too much.

    I’ll be seeing Liam next week so can find out more and also pass on our condolences to connections. He really seems to look after the horses he rides and I’m sure he’s pretty cut up about what happened. [He said that it was a heart attack and, although it happened opposite the stands they were very quick to get the screens out etc. Terribly sad, though.]
