We are sad to share that One For Arthur died this morning. A horse of a lifetime, he made our dreams come true when winning the Aintree Grand National in 2017. Arthur had a fabulous life on and off the track, and in winning at Aintree brought himself immortality. We will miss him
Peter Russell, the "hugely supportive" father of Grand National-winning trainer Lucinda Russell, has died at the age of 95
He part-owned Ahoy Senor, who is still set to take his chance in the Cotswold Chase at Cheltenham on Saturday
Sorry have to re tweet again.. epic.. Such a brave small horse and incomparable jockey who rode with daring and belief. Magic. It has been eight years and I was always sad to watch this but maybe now I can enjoy it an be proud to have been part of Campbell and Bindisi's glory
We mic'd up Corach Rambler's owners and documented their experience from start to finish 🤩

Thank you for supporting Arthur he is home safe and will be back on a track soon. Special thanks to ,
@jaimieduff80
for leading him home all the way up the track
One For Arthur is fine this morning, a little stiff but sound. We will investigate and sort out the jumping left issue and look forward to his next outing. Thanks to all his supporters

Conner's first words to me yesterday "How's Diamond, is my horse ok are you sure he's ok". Today he has mostly slept. Thanks to very one who has expressed concern over Conner's fall and wished him a speedy recovery."

Oh
@SedgefieldRace
.. we cannot enter your chases with just £3,800 prize fund nor the 3m3 hurdle at £3,500. At a time that we are trying to work together that prize money is unacceptable
Devastated to hear that Keagan Kirby died doing the sport he loved. Thoughts are with all his friends, and family and especially those at Paul Nicholls.
I got ‘letter of the week’ in the Horse & Hound..... pls like and share and let’s get some education out there to the difference between cruelty and tragedy ⭐️😘
What beauty! American Tom has arrived with us today, a formally high class chaser who has lost his way. His owner has sent him to see if our varied work and gallops can rekindle him and he has offered him on free lease. Shares start at 10% (£240 per month)
It is a huge honour to be asked to be on

He has 2 broken ribs, 3 fractures in his thoracic vertebrae and a suspect fracture in c6 vertebrae, and a tiny fracture of his fibula, luckily no head injury. He is due an MRI scan tomorrow to check his fractured vertebrae and we will know more about recovery then.

46 winners 13% strike rate and an incredible last month makes this one of our best seasons. And behind it everyone at home has played their part with assurance and driven us forward. Thanks to them and all our supporters
Well done all

safe ground watered to be good, good to soft. If all courses would do that this summer we will have more runners and more sound horses. Going is a welfare issue too
