Dear Max.Sad postscript to the Irish Grand National Tammy’s Hill broke a leg and had to be euthanized.Tough race to watch horses looked very tired.Yes,the Tullow Tank is with Sandra.Mullins is thinking of running Un De Sceaux at Aintree Saturday.The ground is drying out at Liverpool but I’ve heard there is rain due in the west Friday.Lovely pics of Zenyatta.Hugs Sheena.
Horrible news from the Grand National. Was also thinking of Our Connor today.
Do you recall that Al had a broken pelvis, recovered and returned to the races? He is a miracle horse. Charlton says that Al is a pleasure to train. He does everything that is asked of him and does not act like a stallion. Great horse. Definitely the pride of Wales.
Dear Max.Yes,I will always remember the short guy’s comments that day!I have just watched Al’s race he was great.Indeed Wales is very proud of him.In many ways I feel sorry for CC that he has to meet these turf champions maybe at RA but who knows he could surprise us!Sheena.
You are right. With a horse race, anything can happen even miracles. The odds however are clearly heavily against Chromie. No Kentucky Derby winner has ever won at Ascot. The U.S. horses who have had success in the UK like Roberto have been trained on turf for longer than 6 to 8 weeks by trainers who had already won major turf stakes races. Very few trainers are in the same league as Vincent O’Brien.
