I’m so sorry to hear that Trudi. That’s terrible news. My thoughts are with you.

Sorry to hear that GG. I'm sure he'll be right as rain after his recovery.

That’s the problem isn’t it. Whether it’s happened or not the whiff is there.

The rumour mill stared nearly 4 weeks ago, and was 100% correct with the diagnosis. Same scenario with Aramon. They should be compelled to tell the owners and go public immediately.

Racing does...

:lol::lol::lol:

Native River completely broke him in the Gold Cup. I thought he'd go on as a second season chaser, and perhaps win the Gold Cup, but he's looked out of love with the game since that day. How and...

Retired when she's at a prime age to go novice hurdling!

Seriously though, Khalid Abdullah deserves real credit for keeping her racing as long as he did. We got an extra year from Frankel too....

One of my favourites. I know both Maurice and I were on when he won his Grand Annual, but he’d been a favourite long before that.

What was he doing out in August at the age of 13 trying to win a...

Loved him. Shame about the injury, but he's out of the game in one piece, and deserves a long and happy retirement.

Yes, and unfortunately Ruth Jefferson's cautiousness has come back and bitten. He's hardly had a race in his life (13 races in 5 seasons!!!), and as you say Moe, he's now highly unlikely to ever...

They're two potentially big losses to this coming season.

That is a real shame. They're an exciting bunch of second season staying chasers this season, and this is not the news we want.

I agree. Dan Skelton is the 'Martin Pipe' of the current generation. He is a mix of pushing them on and laying them out, and is all about results and pot hunting. If he's got a really good one he may...

Really sorry to hear this. Thoughts with all those who have been connected to Airlie Beach.

Not an equine departure, but Corky Browne has retired after 41 years working with Nicky Henderson.

A top man who has been in the Seven Barrows engine room overseeing some of the best horses we'e...

McCain by a distance. A lot less to live up to but has a lot of expensive purchases each year and does nothing with them.

He's responsible for so many great memories, both on his own, and with his epic battles with Kauto.

I agree with Bear, his Gold Cup win against Kauto, as much as I find it hard to admit, was...

Thanks for letting us know Chris. He was indeed well liked on here. Sad news.

I know it's not necessarily your own opinion Ardross, and you 're posting up what was said, but surely the same would apply to the County Hurdle if it were run as the last race as has been suggested....

Thanks Ardross. I didn't see it, so on what basis were they suggesting the race needed to be moved? On what's suggested from your post de Boinville and Kelly think it's because it's the last race?...

Well said DG. All these people that are quick to point fingers and want radical change never seem to let the facts get in the way of the position or stance they take. We just get the same old...

The fresh turf used is then used in the Foxhunter and Grand Annual GG.

I wouldn't change anything because I really don't see what difference it'll make. The issue was the landing side of the fencw. We've never seen this problem before, and now there are suggestions...

What reasons does Alastair Down give Ardross?

Heard the same at lunchtime. Another setback apparently. No official news as yet though.
