The TWF Horse Racing Thread

[The Bear]

I had Curvy win earlier with a £1 punt at 7/1. I only really put it on because I stick bets on for a lad at work who's missus doesn't like him betting!

So I've had a couple of wild punts in the last, even though it sounds a wide open race - King Bolete 8/1 and Putting Green 16/1. My mate fancies Taper Tantrum as he went to Epsom the other week and said it ran really well from a disadvantaged position and was steaming through at the end.

Kauto Star has been put down after suffering a fall, fracturing his pelvis.

Such an impressive performer, twice won the Gold Cup and five King George's

 

[Nando]

Oh fuck.

He didn't deserve that. Gutted.

 

[Penk Wolf]

Sad indeed.

 

[Murphy]

He was a true champion, at least by all accounts he didn't suffer and went out still full of life.

 

[slink]

Gutted about this. Such a shame. RIP Kauto.

 

[Nando]

There are some horrible rumours flying about. The extent of the injuries do seem to suggest it was something more than a fall.

I've been gutted all day. Poor lad.

 

[slink]

I've seen those Nando and i really hope they aren't true. Why would they lie about what happened, what have they got to gain from it? I got to see him one last time this year at Cheltenham when he paraded with some other past champions on Champion Hurdle day and he still looked a million dollars.

Rare post from me but I think Indian Scout in the 2.10 at Beverley tomorrow is worth a dabble
