    Sadly lost at Cheltenham today. Hope Dell’Arca is OK after his fall in the same race.

    Yeah, just read it on Twitter. Sad, because he had his share of problems over the past two years and yet Henderson ran 6 in that race, despite being badly out of form. To make things worse he was well towards the rear when he took a heavy and fatal fall at the last. Probably it was the owner’s wish to have a runner at the Festival not considering the poor stable and horse’s form.

    Had hoped we had got by without another casualty at Cheltenham today but sadly not to be. :(

    Feared the worst following the shifty commentary after this race and very sorry to hear it confirmed. R.I.P.
