TODAY’S HEADLINES REVIEW TRAGEDY STRIKES AFTER CLOUDS CRACKS THISTLE The Gr.2 was billed to be another opportunity for picture courtesy of RACINGFOTOS.COM (Kayf Tara) to showcase his talents and take more scalps of the chasing world, but it ended in tragedy. Last year’s winner Smad Place (Smadoun) made the running tracked by (Cloudings), jumping with his usual exuberance, and Thistlecrack, who made several jumpings errors. Many Clouds surged into the lead four fences out and, though Thistlecrack did his very best to overtake him in the battle to the line and briefly got his head in front, Many Clouds fought back, proving the World Arrogate (Unbridled’s Song) coasts home stronger in the closing stage to score by a head. Disaster struck in the inaugural Gr.1 Pegasus World Cup last night however, as, after crossing the line, Many Clouds collapsed.

It’s sad for but it was subsequently revealed that he had failed to respond to Trevor and my team at Rhonehurst; I’ve been in the game 32 years treatment and died. and horses like that don’t come along very often.
