Is it something about Kempton that is causing these falls. I recall the meeting at the start of January had a couple of bad ones too.

Re happy hackers I used to just apply my best resting b*tch face and reply - actually I'm a miserable hacker

Firstly I am very sorry for your loss. Re the stuff, I think it partly depends on whether you have other horses/intend to get another one, or if you are giving up altogether. When I lost mine in 2024 I knew she'd be my last so nearly everything was given away or thrown out. After years of...
