  I've gone right off it.
  
  I wonder when they'll have 'fruit machine' day?...Oh, I forgot, that's every other day and this one.
  Ignorance is bliss, bliss is happiness, I am happy...to draw your attention to the possible connectivity in the foregoing.

  No, too many horses killed or injured.

  Two have already perished this week alone. Cruel sport. Mind you , the advert showing a horse and rider crashing thro' a greenhouse did the sport no justice either.

  i wouldn't bet on it, the whole thing is unnatural as no other race is that long let alone with such dangerous fences. last year a cheltenham winner(a true thoroughbred) croaked during the race, which doesn't augur well for the lesser horses.
