The Pay Your Respects to Dead Racehorses Thread

No More Heroes any more. He was put down last night after suffering tendon injuries in the RSA. R.I.P.

He was Strangled.

Unfortunately the injury was more than skin deep.

He got a bolt gun, that made his ears burn.

It looked like a couple of jockeys might be joining themā€¦

Gullinbursti suffered a fatal injury at Becherā€™s Brook in the Topham. Minella Reception is still being assessed.

Assessed with a bit of lead behind the ear more like

Non-fatal injury, the heartless owners didnā€™t want to pay for his recovery so they decided to top him.

Minella Reception passed on with a case of lead poisoning

No Grand National fatalities

Not today but wait untill a few owners realise they have to pay trainers fees for the year ahead. One or two might end up as Bovril yet

The anti-horse racing crowd will be seething.

An Irish winner and no blood sacrifice in 2016 in horse racingā€™s GPO (Greatest Prize Ofall).

None died from their falls after amusing the whickering horsey set only to be scuppered by a .22 from the veterinary surgeon, you mean surely?

Youā€™re trying too hard now. The horsey lads have won this one, take your beating and run along like a good lad.
