There has been a horrifying number of deaths among quality racehorses lately. I can't help wondering if a jockey is due to join the lists within the next few months. Ironically, when they do die, quite often the accidents take place off the course - Brian Taylor, Derby winning jockey, died in a racecourse paddock.
The odds on a top event rider joining the list must be fairly short, there have been so many deaths in that sport.
