Shadwell.
What a great film.
Weeeee are Shadwell…

I don’t quite understand your language but this seems to imply his dam was no piebald?? :man_shrugging:

‘His sire was the sire of sires, Sadler’s Wells (1981) and his dam was Betty’s Secret, by Secretariat. Betty’s Secret had already distinguished herself as the dam of Secreto (1981), the winner of the Epsom Derby in 1984.’

McManus jnr doesn’t come out well from that coroners report In Barbados.

You’d wonder what sort of stuff has been buried here with money and legal actions.

What was the crux of it?

It seems the Coroner defied a lot of pressure to issue his verdict at the same time

A bit weird to be injecting cocaine though :thinking:

Just shows, you can have all the money in the world and it doesn’t guarantee you a jot of happiness… Fucking track marks…

Very sad tho with 3 kids denied their mother.
The rest is immaterial really

If it’s true, it is really odd behaviour by the McManus family. Why not just be open about it?
Track marks, some deep level of misery.
Cleaning the scene??

Not really. PJ likes to project as just a normal fella down the road who got lucky with a few bets. Cocaine and track marks doesn’t fit that narrative.

Is it really anyone else’s business though? Someone with issues died by drug use, happens every minute of every day unfortunately

The issue is the lengths to which the family tried to cover it all up.

Trying to protect the kids from the stigma?

The two priests being flown out with a host of other locals while us minions were in lock down is a little annoying all the same

Really?

Camelot.

Maybe life assurance.

Most likely just complete panic

You don’t fight an expensive legal battle for months in a panic
