Kauto Star RIP

Because it is an animal , it has no worth to mankind whatsover, it is just good for dog food ( NSC philosophy ).

THAT is the bit (between the teeth...) that kills me. Every time. ( MoH philosophy ).

Ever been whooshed?

Sorry, I couldn't work out if he was playing the role of US or agreeing with the US philosophy (I know, seems unlikely).

Because it is an animal , it has no worth to mankind whatsover, it is just good for dog food ( NSC philosophy ). The fact is was loved by millions of race fans and was a unique character who had a never give up attitude ( nearly said never say die but thought that would give an excuse for a hilarious joke ) he was a very special animal. He won 4 King George races in a row and the Cheltenham Gold cup and countless other big races. He was invited to lead the Gold cup horses allow the turf at cheltenham which he did do until this year. The old fella knew he was at cheltenham and would have raced at 26 if he was allowed to. A real character.

He nearly died at 14 with colic but made a miraculous recovery and was a fondly remember horse thats courage and spirit was a joy to see. He was a celebrity opening supermarkets and shows.

I like many others thought his win at the Cheltenham Gold Cup in 1989 was the greatest ever sporting moment. He simply refused to be beaten with ground against him in the hardest jumping race of the year and was 2 lenghts down and tiring in the final furlong but summoned the strength to win on the line was truely wonderful.

but hey its only a horse, lots of childish jokes to be made and take the piss out of people.

NSC really is shit nowadays.

I think this answers it

Good post, but you are fighting a losing battle against a postmodernist influenced culture that trivialises every higher feeling and emotion.

As someone who wound up all the Dog lovers on that Poodle Fou Young thread, its probably best I keep a low profile on here.

Kauto and Denman were the best I've seen and their contrasting styles made 3 mile chasing a great sport to follow for that time. All credit to Paul Nicholls as well for running them against each other as well. RIP Kauto.

Why is it so sad?

At 27 I'd say he had a pretty good run, wouldn't you? Everybody/thing dies, that includes horses...

FOR ****S SAKE

Hey, show some respect there fella, that's bang out of order! Kauto Star had LOADS of good runs (Cheltenham Gold Cup (2007, 2009); King George VI Chase (2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2011); Betfair Chase (2006, 2007, 2009, 2011)

May he frolic forever in that big Gold Cup in the sky with Desert Orchid. RIP

Not that I am sad. But I think he was 15. Not that old for a horse
