Jockeys back into the weighing room. This is not good at all. Very sombre on RUK. I really hope he is okay. Not arsed about the head bobbing second (which cost me almost £1500) now.
I don't think its life-threatening or anything like that, just need to get him to hospital and the helicopter is the quickest way
I doubt they'd reschedule the x country if his injury was life threatening. So hopefully it isn't to serious
You couldn't have SC goven Nicholls form, and SDC losing his regular pilot is a blow. The 2 Henderson horses would appear to have it between them.

Ey this ****ing double posting is doing my head in ................ spent ages deleting duplicate posts but I can't be arsed any more so **** it and my apologies
If the race is going ahead then it's not life threatening , he just must be broke up, wish him speedy recovery. I'm getting sweeter on Long Run's chances too, looking forward to it now GGW, hopefully it turns out a good race.Goodluck with Bob.
I'm going to do my bollocks tomorrow. Not a prayer of a winner in the last 3 and I always bet more on course. 3 days of grinding up the bank balance will be gone in minutes
Can attest to the difficulty in getting away from the course. Even with blues and twos. Took me 45 minutes just to drive past the place last night and that was 90 minutes after the last race!
I know mate but he is still a Gold Cup winner, dual King George winner and only 8 years old. Look at what first-time headgear has done to a few horses this week. Discount him at your peril (or if you back Bobs Worth, back Long Run e/w to cover your stake - nailed on for a place IMHO)

The Gold Cup has always been between the Henderson pair, anyone who fancy's Sir Des Champs really needs to look at the form book. I can't understand why these gigginstown stud horses get so overrated, we seen what happened to First Lieutenant today, sent off at a ridiculous short price despite doing nothing special all season, and the same will happen to SDC, who has shown nothing to suggest he can win a a Gold Cup
