Smooth win BOF. Nice run to get him bang on for the real plan. Look forward to further updates and the blog on Dream.

[RufusFlynn]

Fantastic run there - enjoy the ‘craic’ afterwards!

[Lobos]

Love this, good luck. He's in the last leg of my treble and I am confident

[ComplyOrDie]

Great stuff Bayoffreedom

Bit of after timing on my part, but I jumped on board and managed to use him in a roll up too

Nice to see, Paul. Well done.

[Bayoffreedom]

Thanks for the good wishes everyone. Yesterday was one of the good days; today is one of the bad ones. He was sore last night and it turns out he has broken his leg. I was at the stables when the vet x-rayed him. He had a 50:50 (at best) chance of racing again (a year off, at least) with an operation or be put down. I asked if he could still have some sort of life even if he couldn't race and was told that he could. It had to be an immediate decision and I couldn't think of putting him down so he is now being on operated on and we should know soon how it's gone.
Apologies to anyone from Animal Rising if this decision doesn't suit your campaign rhetoric!

Christ. Deeply sorry to be reading this Paul.

Keep us informed, hoping he comes through the operation well and can have a life after racing.

So sorry to hear that BOF. The ups and downs of racing in 24 hours. I applaud you for the decision you've made. Hopefully it'll turn out for the best.

[Joleg]

Such sad news, here's hoping all goes well and that he goes on to live the rest of his days happily

[Benjy23]

Well played and all the best BoF.

[SeanRock]

Well done re: the result BOF, that was some great race placement from Fahey. He operates well beyond his means he’s a cute hoor & is absolutely flying at the moment, so good to see.

Equally gutted re: the post race setback, that’s racing for you, more downs than ups but hopefully he’ll rehab well & come back with his old zest still intact. Wouldn’t be in the least bit interested in what any of the Animals Rights active idiots care, they are living in cloud cuckoo land.

Fingers crossed for a full recovery.

[Exar Essay]

All the best BOF! Keeping everything crossed that if nothing else, he gets many happy years sunning himself and living the life or Riley.

[RufusFlynn]

Not the update we were expecting - sorry to read BOF.

Echoing the others here but hope the op went well & he goes on to enjoy his retirement whether that be ridden or otherwise. All the best.

[Bayoffreedom]

Many thanks for the good wishes. I was struggling to post x-rays and video to the forum so ended up writing a blog detailing the last 48 hours http://www.cheltenhamdream.com/blog-...tic-three-days. Fingers crossed he is on the road to recovery.
