    Edited replay cut out the incident just there on RUK. Must have been bad. Meeting pulled after delays. Tylicki air ambulance, Crowley regular ambulance. The othe 2 lads, durcan and Drowne ok apparently. Tylicki mount fell and probably caused the melee. Unavoidable most likely. Hope the lads and horses are ok.

    I've watched the replay and it wasn't Graham Gibbons finest hour. He cut Tyliki off up the rail.

    Very nasty incident, hope all are okay.

    Just heard about it on the news there now. It's always horrible and to hear of an incident where a rider is taken to hospital by air, and when potential spinal injury is involved. Hope they're ok.

    RUK showed a truncated version of the race on their replay show last night (for obvious reasons)

    I'd say unless you had the live broadcast recorded it'd be hard to find it. Not sure I want to see it anyway :(

    Not the news anyone wanted, T7 paralysis for Freddy. Heart goes out to him, his family and friends.

    Racing is a cruel bitch. Fred had a nice season with Speedy Boarding with 2 Group 1s. Jim wins the jockeys title and was close to a similar ending

    Awful. I fear more these days when I hear about an incident on the flat than the hunt.

    Tragic cards dealt to Tylicki. I really feel for the guy, can't imagine that news being given to me. I hope he can manage and it's better than JTs injury.

    Robbie McNamara is an incredible person as he handles his paralysis. I can only hope that Freddy is as strong.

    Incredible events :(

    I feel someone should mention this at this time.

    I will be donating money to the IJF http://www.injuredjockeys.co.uk/and the the Irish equivalent http://irishinjuredjockeys.com/

    They have shops as well so it would be a good present for a horse racing fan - which is a common question on here around Christmas time
