as brutal as that race is on horses they could never run that here in the states.

I think they did cover it live last year - maybe TVG. It was amazing...

Run the race - the one that's really worth winning.

Well its finally here and I've decided to put my money on Quinz.

Won a good race at Kempton on its last start and I'm just hoping it jumps well and can last the four and a half miles of the race

Two equine fatalities and the winning horse needed oxygen after the race (literally).

It was an warm drying day overhere, and over the pond it was even beter
almost an summer day.

The amateur rider finished second, it was an thriller
