Inspection passed and so were under starters orders!!
A horse I'm crossing everything for today:

Fruity O Rooney

Let's say thanks to the boys and girls of racing for being out in the cold at all hours to provide a excellent festival: may all your horses return home safe!

Fingers crossed for JT McNamara.. Had a nasty fall in the last and was airlifted off the course. Currently in an induced coma with head injuries :(

Oops, didn't read last page.. Still, my thoughts are with him for a speedy recovery

McNamara has a broken neck -C3 and 4. He's lucky to be alive. Hope he stays that way, all good wishes to him.

I wish him all the best, and hope the doctors can keep him comfortable and stable.

It certainly leaves a big shadow over things, I hope to god he can get through this. An acquaintance is currently in HDU after being kicked in the head last month having spent 3 weeks in critical care - it was touch and go for a while, and although he's improving there are no promises as to the final outcome. It really brings home to you how precious life is.
