David
Carr "On how fans who came to see stars
were stunned into silence."
"One
moment and the magic had vanished ... Some game, isn't it, Henderson
"For
the second time in ten months champion owner JP McManus and champion jockey
Tony McCoy were left united in grief after the loss of star horses, killed on the racecourse.
"Last
April their Betfred Cheltenham Gold Cup
winner SYNCHRONISED lost his life in the John Smith's Grand National at
Aintree, suffering fatal injuries when running
loose after falling at Becher's Brook.
"Yesterday
their Stan James Champion Hurdle second favourite DARLAN was throwing down a
strong challenge in the 32Red Hurdle at Doncaster ,
only to fall at the final flight. He was killed instantly."
"A
distraught McCoy gave up his remaining rides, while DARLIN'S trainer Nicky
Henderson was in tears "He didn't deserve that, why is it always the good
ones? Some game isn't it?"
"IT HAD all looked so good beforehand. A
real Magic Monday in prospect. These were proper Saturday horses. ROCK ON RUBY,
DARLAN, COUNTRYWIDE FLAME. Winners of the Champion Hurdle, Christmas Hurdle and
Fighting Fifth Hurdle.
"Used
to competing for big weekend prizes, performing for a terrestrial television audience
of millions, glad-handed afterwards by Channel 4's Clare Balding or Nick Luck."
