Great Old horse I think I have bet in Everything Gold Cups ,Nationals RIP

Went doing what he loved best ...

it's jennifer sadly lost her life also at aintree.

Sad day.

Difficult not to react more to an old warrior like HDO ,who has run in so many big races over the years.

We also have the hypocrisy of the holier than thou social media twerps........not a peep on a fatality in December over the Aintree fences......but come April it would be a call for the end of horse racing.

Very sad end for a real trier that has been around for ages near the very top, owners and connections must be distraught.

What a horse -backed him in the 2014 Hennessy at 3 figure odds -went close enough to evens in running.I thought he was good enough to get placed in a Gold Cup on heavy ground -sadly not.Must have been a great horse to own.

My forum experience has improved no end since I blocked (only 1 blocked in 10 years!) the clown in question.

I suggest others do likewise.
