    Very concerned about Mr Vango, didn’t see Quai De Bourbon go but hope all are ok.
    Impressive performance from the winner.

    Well, was out and missed the racing this afternoon but heart sank when got home and saw RUK didn’t have the 2.20 available on replays, presumed there had been a fatality. Just catching up on itv now, and it’s painfully obvious that poor Gold Dancer suffered an injury at the last fence. Sickening to see and can’t fathom that it appeared to be unnoticed by the jockey until Harry Cobden had a word after the line. Sours the whole meeting.

    Such sad news, he was very talented and so much potential.
    Devastating for all connections.
    RIP Gewan.

    I’m another on Marble Sands, backed at 100-1 but Bet365 now have him at 125-1.
    Also Final Orders 25-1 and Favori de Champdou 33-1.

    Love Grangeclare West but not happy with jockey booking so not backed him.
