Trainers Championship

it made my day to see sprinter sacre, he is a magnificent looking horse and it was a bonus that he won so convincingly...and I also love menorah and as really pleased that he won as well. well done to harry skelton for pulling up the grey horse before the first jump, I think they said he had fractured his pelvis, hopefully he ill recover to fight another day.
 
One of the rare days this season that I have watched the racing live, put a casserole in the slow cooker and my feet up!
Sprinter Sacre magnificent, I could hardly bear to watch the race!
As for the championship, how ridiculous that they want to win a paper prize so much they will play with horses like that. Imagine if there had been fatalities of these outstanding prospects? Actually Nicholls did lose Simon Squirrel on Friday.
In the end of course Mullins is just a servant to a rich and powerful man, I presume it was he that put pressure on him to withdraw Vroum Vroum Mag, (what a horrible name for a beautiful mare) when they was no chance of victory in the championship. As someone already said £1000 is nothing to the owner. He seems a ghastly man.
 
So sad about Simon Squirrel, I loved his name and therefore him. Is that where Sam T-D got his black eye and multi cloured face from?
I don't see that PN played with the horses on Saturday? Noone ran that wasn't capable from his yard although actually I do agree that Mullin's didn't do well, running the two that had horrible falls one or two weeks ago was a bit desperate.
