Neither I nor my mates give a **** or rides horses.

Dooney's Gate in the fraction of a second before breaking it's back and dying at fence 10.

The second horse to die instantly within two fences.

I had 2 £2.50 each way bets on for Oscar time and Don't Push It. For £10 od bets I got £19.38 back, so not bad

I put 2.50 e/w on Oscar time, Ballabriggs, Niche market Character building and becauseicouldntsee, so bets cost me £25 and I doubled my money

Jen went to the GN so she put the bets on for me and now I have to take her out for putting the bets on
