    One to keep an eye on for his next race. He would have pissed that if it wasn't for him getting obstructed.

    Rip

    Feel for all connections. Barry Connell paid £1 million for that horse last year and he had a lot of potential. Awful for them all.

    People are getting a bit carried away with The New One here I think, I mean yeah it was hampered but that meant it wasn't on the pace for half of the race which left it with something in the tank to finish strongly. But guess we'll never know. Shame about Our Conor falling never got to see its potential and guess age caught up with The Fly. Well done Jezki backers if there were any on here

    What a ****ing tragedy, puts everything in to perspective, I was angry with Our Conor for getting the biggest jailcase of the century beat The New One, I was angry at that, but when you hear Our Conor lost his life, my money means **** all, the biggest tragedy ive ever seen in racing.

    Barry Connell was going to give the prize money to the JP Mac fund.

    Wonderful gesture and this is how it ends for him.

    Tragic.
