Hope Garde Champetre is ok!

looked bad s r

fingers crossed

Didnt deserve that old boy.

not another one

who cares ?

**** off skint

Most of us proper horse racing folk do, if you don't you deserve to go skint!

Most of us on here care

I didnt see Guarde was it the same as Scotsirish ?

AG pulled up very quick, couldnt see because it was one of those banks it was just about to climb

yep
scotsirish too

they both been put down :(

going skint what a pen is

Pulled up quickly as about to take a fence.

hearts

Hope its not a break with Guarde.

These horse are legends in these races.

sorry guys missed the racing today because of work has there been many injuries hope not

ffs its sad.

The rock hard ground i expect.

RIP scotsirish,

apparently garde is injured hope he is ok

RSPCA will be wanting changes to this race.

both fantastic servants to the game, had a bad day punting but a terrible end to the coverage. Makes you wonder how firm that cross country course was. Terrible shame that scotsirish has gone, hope garde champetre isnt too serious and can retire to a nice field now.

Hearts

both been destroyed i think.

Only the two in the X-Country - Scots Irish one was horrible. Not sure if it was jumping the Canal Turn fence or just after, broken near hind I think.

Garde Champetre broke down on the flat - the way he lost his action looked pretty bad, I wouldn't hold out much hope. Couldn't see what might have caused it as fence blocked the view.

Harry Handsome gone at Sedgefield too  :-(

the ground is a lot firmer for this race.

Scotsirish put down, Garde Champetre injured was last C4 said

Apparently they can not water this course.

Not good at all.

Both gone you can hear the sorrow in Lydias voice

GC put to sleep as well :(

IS IT TIME TO BAN STEEPLE CHASING

So sad for the old boy... i had that feeling they should'nt have run him anymore at 13... he was getting weaker every race.

IS IT TIEM TO BAN STEEPLE CHASING

Very sad

yes it's deflated the day for me

Messi - they both broke down on the flat, they didn't fall.

Taken the shine off the day for me, such a shame.

Very sad indeed.

Awful news that Garde Champetre has been put down, too.

RIP Garde

This has turned out to be a very sad day.
