I think he was caught off guard and sat down out of sadness

    sounds like the work of person that wrote the " Fork Handles " script. !!

they lead busy lives but you,d have thought after that trophy hunter incident,GE or someone connected would have said remember that photo lets get rid,maybe they did and one slipped through the net  --  It's such a surreal picture. It could be some comedy image off a Blazing Saddles film  or some sick modern art picture in the Tate Gallery. All the eyes move with you! When you look at it you will never forget it and his inane psychopathic grin and v sign. What he did was of questionable seriousness but the image of it is a little haunting to tell the truth. In this age of social media it may just be too much for him to overcome. Whether he was off guard or not I am coming to the conclusion it's pretty impossible for him to continue in the way he has. It would take a inspired PR campaign to get over that image,

The thread of the year should be awarded to this one , without a shadow of a doubt . As someone said earlier , you’d think that wannkrider is taking the pisss only for the fact that people on the Irish forum have seen this kind of material before . He really is a legend in fairness to him .

He certainly hasn’t lost it is right slickster . This one is right up there with his best ones , and as you know , he’s had some toppers .

Wonky getting confused again. Robo he thinks I'm you and you're me!!!! Stop it wonks you have me in stitches. Truly, you are some character.

A daily positive from Robo.
Denis O Regan is the same all his career , trying to be clever when there’s no need for it . The best horse lost but Denis looked good acting the bolllix

9 races so far today decided by good and bad jockyship

Momella  great ride by sean Bowen , poor by Gavin Sheehan
Tea Time on Mars , the worst of the day by Lucy Gardiner , absolutely pathetic
Top Of the bill , the usual knobb effort by Mark Grant , any competent rider would have won
Eyes ridden dreadfully by Lewis Edmunds , should have won easily , but got hampered on numerous occasions
Bardd , page fuller did a lot right but then undid all the good work by letting the winner up her inside
Espoir Du Guye was ridden dreadfully by Brian Hughes , got shuffled back at a vital stage , should have won
Eaton Miller got a terrific ride by Caoilin Quinn , with others in the race refusing to pass it when they could
Blue Cable and Rossa Ryan should have won 5 lengths but managed to get beat
Johnny Peate on swooper , what a race he lost , fell out of the stalls and then got murdered
It just goes to show how difficult it is to win back winners when roughly 25% of the results are not what they should be

How was the hurdle unjumpable ? , it needed to be hammered into the ground , that’s all that was needed .
JBNAY , If there was no betting , they’d be no sport
Alien , everyone knows Apiafi is on the channel to pacify the Black Lives Matter brigade , much the same as there are token women on every sports channel who should be doing the ironing , the bulk of them are screaming clueless clowns .

Wankrider , get into bed ya clown , don’t be making a complete prikk of yer self . How’s the Greek fella that was living with ye at one stage ? , is he still around the place ?

Says the chap who has spent half his non working life ( 25 years roughly ) in and out of straight jackets

I never claimed to be nice wankrider, I’m not here to make friends .

Tie him to a bed and let the hairy Greek ride the hole off him .

If I caught a Tuna in the sea and stood proudly with my now dead fish, am I not worse than what Elliott did?

Its not like Elliot murdered the horse ffs but I definitely murdered than fish

We live in the most moronic society ever.

As one tweeter said, we now place more value on a horse who died naturally than unborn babies aborted so their parents don't have to deal with an inconveniance

Only people upset are morons who develop an emotional attachment to a specific set of animals (Horses, Dogs etc...)

Horses are eaten in Italy. Worse than what Elliott did?

He took a stupid photo end of.

Good post ProSniper ;sums up the position well ;however I'd add that the outrage is also because the sport of horse racing is tarnished by association with the buffoon.

All trainers are asked to do is treat the beautiful beasts with the greatest of care..

They do.


and show them the god damn respect they deserve

They do


(This includes their lifeless bodies)

What do you expect him to do.....Mourn? Have a wake for the f**king horse?
Throw him in a coffin and have 6 workriders lower him 6 foot under whilst sobbing and throwing bouquets in after?
He could go around for a year wearing black maybe

He works in a major racing facility and probably deals with horse deaths in the double figures each year. Its comical how deluded some people are to realities of racing.

Animal cruelty in racing should be treated with the most severe punishment but this nothing of the like.

He'll get a ban for bringing racing into disrepute. Theres zero cruelty shown here.

that would be correct i imagine

its just my opinion mandarin

no one ever said it was animal cruelty RQ , the horse was dead it wasnt capable of suffering further


So what were they saying/whinging about?

I think who he is and what he does for a living have overtaken the subject matter ie the degree of cruelty to the dead horse. I understand it's bad pr for the sport, but I've known worse. Nevertheless, what he did was inexcusable.

I'd like to see a reassessment and focus more on the "crime" itself (on a dead horse) and punishment dished out accordingly. But, please do not make it worse than it's already is eg a witch hunt as I'm sure worse have happened in and out of the sport or on the track with living or dead horses.
