Always better having me behind the camera Kri than in front don't want to break the lens!:ninja: Great day (bar the lack of winners:whistle:) but hugely informative.Some nice sorts but some of them just couldn't get home on the ground & poor old Kinkeel was out on his feet near the end...

No Kri.I saw that,Gamede was pulled up sharply down the back & dismounted quickly. Susie Van Hall at Limerick also looked to have a problem after jumping one down the back just then. Lots & lots of nasty falls today.

Didn't look to good for Gamede there at Leopardstown,jockey still down too after pile up earlier in same race.Fingers crossed for both.

Lovely.Thanks for sharing Sue!

Thanks for the comments. Yeh,MM is a real old gent. As he paraded around on his own he had that sort of 'where are the others?' look in his eye,I had a tear in mine hence a couple of slightly blurry shots! Shane Bryne then got on board & he got a round of applause before heading out & down to...

Here's a few of the other particpants & winners.

Here's a few pictures of Mister McGoldrick from Boxing Day.

I've noticed a few farical starts in Ireland recently but that one at Limerick was a classic,starter waved his hand & guy with tape in his hand let it go!!! Field were spread over about a furlong!! LMAO!

Couldn't have put it any better myself Kri. A letter is certainly worth a go. Really pleased Mister McGoldrick got around safely LTO & now really pleased he's been retired in one piece. Hopefully I'll get some pics at Wetherby Monday of him & give him a cheer as he canters down to past the...

Wise words Kri,I wonder how much of the 'persistant riding' is due to the fact that remounting is now not allowed? No doubt some of the riders think they may as well carry on till the end as they don't know whether the ones in front will complete? Just a thought but as you say,especially with...

I found it odd that he doesn't ride till the last three races today. I know he's doing his lowest weight for Sunnyhillboy so maybe thats a tip in itself & maybe thats the reason why he doesn't ride before the big race. He rode the Brynes horses at Wetherby the other week, but is not on them...

Sad!! Mattie Batchelor may be a cheeky chappy,loveable this that & other & everybodies mate but he has effectively,& stupidly,IMO,ended the horse's life.

He may have won the Hennessey a few weeks ago but Mattie Batchelor did not cover himself in glory today forcing old Kapelhoff round Fontwell till he fell 3 out!!! Not sure why he persisted with him as he was riding along all the way & at 14 years old maybe he was trying to say something!!! Just...

Gutted,just found out from friend on Twitter about Tarablaze as per Flame's message :(

I was told he got up OK but don't know his condition. Micky Hammond reported that San Deng was retired after his fall the other day.

Just found out about RR,knew you'd be upset:( Gutted meself.Lovely horse.RIP lad.
