<br>"It seemed inevitable somehow that he’d die that way and that shouldn’t happen"
Sorry Burroughhill, I really cannot see how you can draw that conclusion to the end of Venn Ottery, anymore than you can about hundreds of other horses who actually race to their limits on a regular basis.
Just my opinion.
<br>Maybe inevitable is too strong a word, but it didn’t come as a huge surprise. There was a certain "I thought that might happen" feeling about it, but maybe that’s just me.
