I think One Man was the death that hit me hardest as well moe. I was actually running a betting shop at the time in a rough old part of West London (Southall area) and actually had a tear my eye, but...
A flurry today...Might Bite also retired
Indeed Moe and she was always known as ‘Roys Baguette’ in our racing group :D
Yep, terrible shame. On first viewing I was hoping he’d just downed tools and refused to jump the fence, but sadly not. Tough old game isn’t it sometimes…
Pentland Hills likely to miss the whole of next season with a leg injury

Shame...
Oh no...just so sad, especially when it sounded like they were both on the mend
Such a shame and she was a proper superstar
Passed away yesterday

Moon Racer and Un Temps Pour Tout leaving Pond House...

This is how i will remember him...

Three time festival winner. Some achievement. Happy retirement

Think that's a decent choice for him to bow out on and will almost certainly be in attendance now
Sire De Grugy most likely to be retired and stay with the Moores
That is truly terrible news for all involved with her

Thanks Unsinkable Boxer and you are clearly a Pond House fan :)
He was around during a brilliant period for 2 milers & also made a couple of remarkable comebacks after long breaks for injury....
For sure CC has peaked and on his way down, but think he'll pick up some decent prize money next season without embarrassing himself
Shame about Imperial Commander. A real old favourite
Indeed and he's earned it
Also confirmed that Cue Card comes back next year. Right decision in my opinion as may have a lost a bit of his spark, but can still be competitive in decent races and...
Always terrible to lose one, but Reve is a shocker and feels like he's been around for ever. The Williams yard must be distraught
Yes same colours - used to be Peter Luff’s, who was a local builder/property developer and died in 2014. Now in his wifes name
Such a shame about Eduard. Only recently from injury and looked to be enjoying himself today
Good news though that Ballyoptic got up OK
