Saddest news of the week. Limestone Lad was an absolute hero of a racehorse. RIP.
Stayers fancy Theleme has met with a setback and won’t run at the Festival.
Right shame that. :(
FFS.
Good Land OFS - has done a tendon.
Very sad.
Shame you won’t get a last hurrah out of him, Archie, but he has served you well, no doubt about that. I hope he has a very long and very comfortable retirement.
Harry Whittington will hand in his license at the end of the season, to concentrate on his pre-training operation.
Nicholls didn't sound very strong on that option, tbh.
Clan Des Obeaux won't make Aintree.
Cloth Cap retired.
Liberty Dance has had a setback and will miss the Festival.
Right decision.

One of the great staying hurdlers - Baracouda - has passed away at the age of 28.
Shan Blue OFS (no major surprise).
Upbeat message from Seven Barrows, who say that Altior appears to be “through the other side” of his bout of colic.
Great news.
Gericault Roque OFS.
Top Bandit didn't make it yesterday, after his absolute horror fall.
Cue Card has died of a heart-attack at only 16yo. What a bloody shame.
I’m still sore he chinned Vautour in the KG, but he was an otherwise brilliant racehorse, and one of my personal faves.
Didn't come from the WP Mullins account then. :ninja:
I'm more interested in El Fabiolo's ongoing absence from the track, tbh. Not entered-up in any of the Beginners Chases this weekend (though...
Winner of the 2003 Grand National Monty's Pass, has passed away aged 29.
National placed and Festival winner Teaforthree has passed away.
Blazing Khal not likely to be seen until the New Year.
Allaho reportedly misses the KG with a setback, according to ATR. Connections hoping he'll be Ok for Cheltenham.
