So sad at the loss of the great Oscar Whisky in the Tingle Creek today. Brave little horse who always tried his best. Condolences to the Henderson team.

I'm gutted, Barry is saying he thinks he did it on take off as it was a soft fall, cant believe we will never see him again, condolences to all his connection and sadly to the connections of Balbriggan who also lost his life today at Aintree.

Such dreadful news, but it's jump racing and the risk that all of those involved, run. I can only imagine how his 'lad' will be tonight, and tomorrow when they go to his empty box. Dreadful, simply dreadful. No less will be the agonies for those who cared for Ballbriggan.

A sorry day for jump racing.

Alec.

It's sad that it was 2 higher profile horses that died today and that both were televised deaths but I don't think it makes it a sorry day for jump racing or any worse for the horse's carers than if they were just any old racehorse.....

Yes a very sad day for both their stable lads or lasses + their owners and trainers, but we mustn't forget these horses did enjoy their jobs and it has been said many times before unfortunately these things do happen.
