Thought someone had posted a thread about the fall yesterday when a photographer was injured by the falling horse of Richard Johnson's? Was I dreaming or has it been removed for some reason?

Not sure if there was a thread about it. I did mention it in one of the two Cheltenham bashing threads though.
He is a French guy and apparently is a bit cut and bruised but generally ok.
He and Richard, and Wishful Thinking were all very lucky. Nasty incident.
 
I did think it a bit insensitive of Alice P on Channel 4 this afternoon when they came on air, replayed the fall with a comment " thankfully Richard Johnson only has sore muscles, and the horse walked away uninjured". Not a word about the photographer, not even " hope he is OK" even if they do not know how he is.
 
Cefyl - there was a post about the fall and I replied to it. No idea why it was pulled although there was some criticism of the way the last fence was not clearly dolled off. My post included!
