Straight to the Point,have seen the replay on RUK tonight and after making a mistake 6 out about 20 yards after the fence Paul Townsend looked DOWN and looked to be pulling horse up or at least cantering back at sedate pace. Out of shot it appears he FELL at 5th Last....cannot work out what he was thinking?....Any thoughts? Opinions welcome.
horses can sense if a rider is scared or worried . perhaps the negativity spread to the horse , and once u get out of a rythem its hard to get it back ., on top the stable are not in form

The Veterinary Officer reported that BEAST OF BURDEN (IRE), which fell, trained by Rebecca Curtis, had bled from the nose.
The way he weakened very rapidly would suggest a bleed.
