@OverandClear Wow, a great spot. Was going to attempt to make a joke related to the TV show but doubt very much you’d even remember that.

No wonder the bend before 2 out on the Chase course was riding tight, virtually a 90 degree turn. Surely the rails should cut the corner more to allow a much smoother turn?

@FSpurway Impossible to say. If he’d fallen or collapsed immediately after the line then I’d say that argument has some weight. The fact he passed his post-race check and was trotting back would class this as sudden death, rather than exhaustion.

The pinnacle of jumps racing had a very sad end to it today, as the 10-time G1 winner, Envoi Allen, collapsed and died after the finish of the Gold Cup. Sudden death is a rare occurrence in our sport. I’ll try to explain what happens and why 🧵⬇️

Racing lost a star today in what should have been his retirement party, the sport will be worse off without him. Rest in peace, Envoi Allen ❤️🤍💙

@rosscojmill Any reason Envoi needed to finish his race today? I think its sickening he was sent over final two fences.

Meanwhile I'd suggest 12 days at Fakenham was a light escape, even considering his amateur status.

Extremely sad postscript to see Envoi Allan collapse after the Gold Cup. A legend in every single way. He lit up Cheltenham on so many occasions. So very sorry to his connections 😔

The Albert Bartlett field was increased from 20 to 22 this year - if it had still been 20 Johnny's Jury wouldn't have got a run (he was balloted out of the Turners). Great to see a field size increasing and making the race better 😀

Cant have been an easy decision but Cheltenham have watered 3-5mm with plenty of rain forecast Seems as if much of today's card will be run before that rain falls but we've seen how deep 'rain-on-watered' ground can get (Day 2 of 2022) so be careful re when you place Friday bets

@RacingJim92 What is the argument that this horse is so brilliant after a good few french starts? My french form knowledge is zero
