I have just heard that Sahne Dye has had a terrible fall in Hong Kong,he is undergoing brain surgery.no other word available just yet.
lets hope he will make full recovery no matter what some punters think of him!!

Yes - let's hope Shane makes a full recovery. He is a brilliant strategist, particularly in big races (I think he has about 90 group 1s to his credit) and with 2yos (4 Golden Slippers in a row).

Couldn't have said it better myself it is always bad to see this sort of thing happen regardless of who it is.
