Grand National Tragedy
I've got some bad news to report, Caroles Clown Lost her life in the Grand National, she sadly broke her neck falling at the 14th fence. The trainer's in shock and will not be talking to the press at this moment in time. I had the rspca on the phone blaming me saying that she was not fit and that she was not good enough to enter the race. I told them where to go and that all my horses are well looked after and are treated like royalty.
R.I.P Caroles Clown........U will be missed

Re: Grand National Tragedy
yes it has happened before. I think it's happened a few times but I can't remember whether the horses involved were removed from the league or if they were allowed to continue racing. I guess the final decision will rest with Jamie.
