Race is Sunday, mate, I think. Ran in one on Boxing Day too.

Personally, I'd rather they retired him. He's made them over a million in prize money, be a shame to lose him at this stage

agree, no need to go chasing at the age, already a legend of a horse

get him in a field shagging

He's explained the photo.

He was personally riding the horse in a training run when it took ill and lay down. He immediately rang a vet - he's said he was conveying to the stable lad the vet could be over within two minutes.

His excuse isn't far behind Dominic Cummins' eyesight story on the bullshit-o-meter

No surprise the the Ryanair cunt is standing by him.

I dunno, my dog got run over once - got him home but unfortunately he pegged it, then the telephone went so I answered it, it got me all confused and I tried to put his corpse on like a cardigan...

It would've looked bad if there'd been cameraphones around back then.
