RIP Lad

Poor lad. So sorry for his family, who live in the next village to me.

Goodness me he’s injured and might be retired. Ha haa ha so predictable. Optimum $ £ & € in keeping the mystique at its most grandest and greatest!!!!!
Not fit to shine the caviars bootstraps. Cream puff champion.
AIC, that’s just plain rude to the horse and his connections.

PS Good news re Our Father – now reported as "fine" – phew!!!
David Pipe says that Our Father didn’t collapse after his race. He does say that although he ran disappointingly, he is fine and has now gone home for his summer holidays.

I see that MWDS has been reinstated in the entries for Aintree foxhunters
Nighthorse, totally agree there.
Sorry, I’d not heard about that consultation. I’ll read through it.
I have no problem whatsoever with ‘same sex’ marriages or partnerships. IMHO love is love, whether it is male/male, female/female or the generally accepted male/female. Is Insomniac asking if we really accept or approve of ‘gay marriage’?
What happened in the pre-watering of courses days? Did we get as many fatalities on the flat or between fences as we seem to get now? In dry summers horses hooves really seemed to rattle but I don’t recall many deaths from it. Maybe horses were bred with a more robust constitution then.
RIP lad
Zen Buddy
I see he is running at Newcastle this afternoon. Good Luck and come back safely
Ooops!! Sorry, didn’t read all the previous posts first!

I might be wrong on this, but I seem to recall that Guy Reed had several native Indian named horses in the past. I can only think of Warpath and Apache just now, maybe others have a better memory!

Don’t know what has happened to Earthmover I’m afraid, but he is listed on the Retraining of Racehorses website, which says in recent years he has been hunting and teamchasing successfully with Charlotte Alexander.
Really Pompete! Where’s your compassion? For some people the death of an horse, or of any beloved pet, is a desperate thing. I assume you are one of the folk who, upon the demise of their favourite dog, would just fling it’s body in the nearest ditch and pretend you never knew it anyway.
So sorry for you and your beloved horse. Take care
