I am still gobsmacked that NM seems to be the only owner concerned at what has transpired, and there is not an angry mob at the gates wanting answers to simple questions about THEIR HORSE’S whereabouts….and some reassurances about her future welfare ? Have they all said “ Well, she’s gone now, not my problem, who cares ?” Damn sure this wouldn’t happen with our horses.

Both have fancy titles now… the sense of entitlement has apparently grown with it…..

Apologies for the post Leigh. It was being sarcastic but understand the call.

Let’s see what Mark Walker can do with her. Coolmore Stakes the aim. Maher has The Next Episode also aimed there so best of luck.

Just making the point in some jurisdictions the penalties can be a lot more severe. Your health is unfortunate but help was available and it does not excuse the treatment of those three mares.

Think yourself lucky Baz I’d say……..

Former England captain and manager Kevin Keegan has died at the age of 75, seven weeks after he revealed he had been diagnosed with stage four cancer, his family have confirmed. One of English football's most decorated players, Keegan enjoyed spells at Scunthorpe United, Liverpool, Hamburg, Southampton and Newcastle during an illustrious playing career. He later went on to manage Newcastle, Fulham, England and Manchester City. Keegan revealed he had stage four cancer in June, which is the most advanced stage of cancer and means the disease has spread to other parts of the body. His family initially disclosed he was battling the disease in January, after he had "further evaluation of ongoing abdominal symptoms" in hospital. A statement on behalf of the Keegan family said he was "surrounded by his wife and daughters in his final moments". "Kevin, a double Ballon d'Or winner, was a much loved husband, father and grandfather," it continued. "The family would like to thank Kevin's incredible medical team for all their support. This is a hugely difficult time and they are requesting space and privacy." Newcastle United paid tribute, describing Keegan as "one of the most iconic, influential and deeply loved figures in our club's history". The club statement added: "Kevin was more than a legendary footballer and manager. He was the beating heart of Newcastle United for generations of supporters. "Kevin's impact will not be measured by appearances or results. It will live on in the memories he created with club and country, the dreams he inspired wherever he went, and the generations of supporters around the world who fell in love with football because of him." Liverpool, for whom Keegan played for between 1971 and 1977, said Keegan's "indomitable spirit and remarkable contribution will be forever etched in our history and his legacy will live on". Hamburg said football had lost one of its "defining figures" and they would always "cherish" his memory, while Fulham said Keegan "forged a strong connection" with the fans, who would "forever hold wonderful memories" of his short time at the club. Keegan's first club, Scunthorpe, described him as "one of the best players of his generation", with an "inspirational demeanour" and "brilliant personality". England and Manchester City both offered their condolences to the Keegan family, with the latter describing him as "one of the most iconic and fondly remembered figures in English football". The Three Lions will celebrate Keegan's life when they host Spain in a Uefa Nations League match at Wembley on 26 September. 03:00

And America will develop rapidly after that. The interest and participation has gone through the roof. Great story in NY about Mamdani leaving the lights on at local football fields ( normally go off at 10pm ) and the neighbours were out watching guys playing games through the night.
