    Ive been following a horse called Knockfierna for a good while now. Stephens Day in Limerick , it was coming to the second last fence upside a Gigginstown horse, having dropped the rest of the field. I had the money spent !!!. Runs out to the right hand side of the fence , giving Madden no chance.
    Yesterday, the same thing. Upside another Gigginstown horse and runs out at exactly the same fence with Gerrighty on board. I would"nt mind ,but its a 3 time course winner. Apart from removing its EYE how could this problenm be cured!!!!!???.

    I do remember a horse (I don't remember the name) but for some reason he would refuse at the last, I think he did it twice in the aintree national,

    they say that the horse has its own mind, but there must of been something that caught his eye, it would be interesting to see what sort of advertising was on show on the day,

    or who was commentating on the race, (over excited and it effected the horse) just a thought, comparing it to the other time he did it, with these things in mind, it might reveal something, sometimes it is the simplest of explanations.

    Losing an eye wont cure the problem.

    Friend of mine had a share in a horse called Chesney who had one eye. He was running a few years ago in a race in Navan, the money was down and it was looking good coming to the last. The horse dives out through the wings of the hurdle and a severe bout of depression ensues.
