    Poor horse, he looked very green and as if there was a lot more to come. Pretty horrendous.

    FORMER Irish Cesarewitch winner Minsk has died at the age of six after contracting a rare illness.
    The son of Dalakhani, trained on the Curragh by Dessie Hughes for jumps and by John Oxx for the Flat, fell ill on Sunday and had to be put down shortly afterwards.
    Trainer Dessie Hughes explained: "He got an infection in his system and there was nothing they could do. It's just one of those things."
    Owner Barry Connell paid tribute to his four-time winner and expressed his frustration over the fact he was never able to fulfill his potential.
    He said: "He just got very ill. He came down with a form of travel sickness and injured himself and had to be put down. The vets were saying it's quite rare and that they only get one or two cases each year.

    Don't think there's anything too serious but Saphir Du Rheu will not run again this season.

    I know Overturn had an injury and was being given a year off - not sure about Peddlers.
