Every time a horse dies at Aintree you hear the same old thing- it could have happened anywhere.
The (not) funny thing is that it happens with dreadful regularity at this course.
I don't like the slippery slope of prescribing what people can and can't do, but animals don't have a proper choice and in it's present form that course is deadly, pure and simple.
Do you close it, shorten it, make it far less demanding on the animals?
I don't know, and the die hards (unfortunate term) will come out with terms like the ultimate test and so on.
