That's BallyCassidy, isn't it? Fell out in front.

Lived to see another day. Shame, got good leg structure, would make a great steak. :food:

Aye...some size of rump on the bugger too.

I kinda thought (twas a long time ago) Horse tasted like "Beef++" like really strong, aged beef.

But I'm gonna have to find out if horses are actually doomed when they bust a leg or whether it's just nastiness on the part of their owners. Must confess tho that while watching the national I was thinking "ah well if one does snuff it, it died doing something it loved", cos whipped arses or not, those buggers were loving every minute of it.

Thoroughbreds weigh 3/4 of a tonne. And look how thin those legs are. How on earth could you ever set a horse-leg so that it doesn't simply snap again. How do you tell a horse to keep it's foot up and rest?! Doomed as soon as they're injured, sadly.

Mind, serves the buggers right for attempting silly show-off jumps over very high things where no sane horse would dare think about leaping! :evil4:

Obviously the equine equivalent of Grand Prix drivers, whom one of the world's top neurosurgeons describes as having "no evidence of any kind of brain structure whatsoever" :D

Amusingly, this is what happens when you try to mix genres: Horse-racing vs Grand Prix driving.

Four legs vs Four wheels

Not sure it'll catch on!

Wish I'd been there. :food: :ignore:
