PN,surely they are "radioed" up and would have been drilled for such eventualities. I'm afraid their employers are vicariously liable for their acts and omissions.. Good to see RJ sustained only minor injuries.
Get me out of here and Third Intention are my 2 in the Coral Cup I would also recommend having a bet now on New Years Eve (B Geraghty) in the bumper as it is sure to shorten up considerably
GMOOH, the form of his last race is very strong. darlan very close to winning thesupreme. zarkandar ran well in the champion hurdle, was just out paced but stayed on strongly. sire de grugy 3rd at the weekend off top weight. Also plenty of experience in big fields at cheltenham.
"Everything was in order but the jockeys had their heads down and couldn't see" FFS Dicky is OK and could possibly ride tomorrow.
At the end of the day a cock up is a cock up but the BHA should see the bigger picture. loads of people lost big style on Sizing and more to the point if Ron had him in any of the comps and loses to someone who had Finian's rainbow he might be so angry that he closes the forum down. They hadn't thought of that i would wager.....
The screens were for Dickie. Couple of nasty looking falls in that race, plus a few looked to pull up injured. Fingers crossed for all.
Someone knew that was a good thing... wasnt it 66/1 this morning...!!! Son Of Flicker never looked anything but the winner from a long way out...
