Should have been scratched then that horrible fall would not have happened

I quite like Sounds Of Love in this one Bob. Rock Stewart pinged last time out so the draw unlikely to make a huge difference. SoL was possibly unlucky with no way through lto and on collateral through Moulina has every chance of beating them both imo. Still 11s with Bet Vic and WH. If reproducing that run, SoL has a very decent e/w chance imo, Dillon now up. Will exacta with Butterfly Spirit who may benefit from a slightly better draw and be able to run a little handier.

Put a jockey on Sounds Of Love and it places at least..

Didn't get the best start Dave, game looked up for the win within the first 100. Could, probably should, have taken a different route entering the straight and got a place but not moaning, the start did for its chances imo.

Fall looked very bad, hope for the best but fear bad news will be coming. Did TT really have to show the replays?

The horse broke her neck in the fall and sadly had to be euthanized. The jockey is OK apparently. Corne Orffer is responsible for an unnecessary death of a much loved filly. She also had prospects of a good racing career. I will be reading the stipes report. Orffer will get a long holiday...at least. Brutal game!
