Top Cees ridden very quietly in this race. Was called out publicly and the Ramsden sued the Sporting Life. Think he won the Chester Cup before winning...
And I thought it would be better to show him winning his Cheltenham grade 1 rather than him dying (where they didnt even show the winning of the race, just the fatal fall), or not show the visuals.
Why not put a highlight reel of the most gruesome leg breaks for an end of year racing awards? Clockwork Orange style.
The only hope for jump racing is that it lives on the idea that these aren't...
Swinging leg unfortunately, done on the flat, but in the background as the leaders were running down to the second last.
Twas particularly brutal, and RTE producers not as sharp at editing out the coverage of the replays.
Poor old Latest Exhibition.
Jason Weaver doing the original Harry Skelton. Made for a superb horse race.
Poor old Cadzand. Didn't look good.
Not really a place to put this but fair play to Patrick Mullins. Journalists do a lot worse than this article.

The National Velvet edit is the definitive version. Kudos to the director for cutting to him slicing through.

Aftermath is great viewing as well...
It was the most exhilarating performance I had ever seen at the time, and still is.
Sorry for being cynical/churlish but ballyoptic failed to meet the reserve at the pre grand national sale (the one where potters corner and balko des flos went for very inflated fees). Selling...
Two horse breaking down on the flat at Lingfield in the last two races - will be lumped in with the stats should there be any tragedies in the National today. RIP Arctic Sea and Mindyourownbusiness.
There are few things more distressing that seeing a double leg break. Only happened a handful of times in the times I've watched racing, but hard to go back enjoying it for a while. There does seem...
Here Comes Johnny at Market Rasen. Seemed like it will be bad news.
Very sad and unlucky start for Nicholls/Jared Sullivan, Saglawy died at Perth today.
UDS top class for me also, and still remember him being prevented from winning the Champion Hurdle by WPM.
if there is confirmation that Sinora got up, it would be very welcome. Fearing the worst.
Looked like Way Back Home fell fatally at the second last at Tipperary today also. Hard to watch. Gutting.
Think the stable lost Kylecrue at Wexford a few months back. Both horses gave their all, every week they ran.
