    Well done Mike I think he won that cosily very cool by Cobden.

    The more I know the less I understand.

    The ground does appear to be a danger to the animals today.

    I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many fallers in the Scottish National.

    Sad and brutal race both horses were going so well.
    Another sad Saturday.😪

    Captain Cody and Klarc Kent both ran well and good choice of the winner from Mike

    Walking On Air pulled up very lame and a jockey taken away in an ambulance. Don’t think we’ve heard the last about this race today particularly following on so soon after last week events.

    Was that watered ground even safe today?

    Loughglynn also PU quickly lame behind in the novices’ chase.
    I saw MacDermott pull up but sort of assumed he was more or less OK as weight bearing, and didn’t realise the Kniphand’s fall was as bad. Not a good day.

    MacDermott fell through a railing after pulling up.

    Macdermott was clearly suffering a heart attack.

    I was out and about and could only watch the race on my phone. Looked like an ice cool ride from Cobden. Also a giant stride towards a second consecutive Trainers Championship for Mullins.

    A shame about the fatalities. One or two of the national papers have picked it up (and the BBC, of course) but no screeching headlines. The Scottish National doesn’t generate as many clicks and the perpetually outraged mob are probably getting angry about something else today.

    Headline news on Mail Online, this eve:

    Campaign group Animal Rising said the event was ‘nothing short of carnage’.
