Couldn’t agree more with triptych and ten plus comments, Synchronised such a brave horse and like Alverton should never have been in the race.
For me the race was horrific with over half the field gone with only 13 fences jumped and for once I thought this was quite a classy field of proven jumpers.
Over 30 runners makes the race more like watching a disaster waiting to happen,I ended up watching for fallen horses to get up, not what was going well or jumping well surely that should not be the case.
This year’s national did nothing to promote the sport at all and gave more ammo to the anti’s with the tragic fatalities and farcical events at the start with a bit of elastic, surely aintree could advance its starting procedure a little better by now.
Everyone I have discussed the race with since, some knowledgable racing fans, some not, have said they would not watch the race again, if we are to keep this race then something drastic has to be done as in its present state it can hardly be called sport.April 14, 2012 at 09:29 in reply to: ‘Dark Horses Preview’ Aintree day 3 Saturday selections here #400479KIERAN"S SELECTIONS

Feel very sorry for LR, he is a very good horse who won the gold cup,carrying a vast amount of dead weight,which is all SWC is.
SWC gives the horse no confidence at jumps and asks LR to rise a millisecond too soon in my opinion which is why it looks like LR scrapes the top of fences, SWC also has waterski feet in the irons, never a sign of a confident rider consequently he is never balanced, LR maybe the jolly for the gold cup but with SWC on board I wouldn’t put a penny on him.November 12, 2011 at 11:47 in reply to: ‘Dark Horse Jumps Guide 2011-12’ Paddy Power Gold Cup Comp #377492RACE1
