The Horse Race

Yesterday we went to a horse race circuit to see the horses and the fair.

When we arrived there was the second race and we can´t pass because the way to get into the parcel cross the circuit, and there was around of it.

We spent a lot of time in the races and went around the fair, buying something for food, drink, souvenirs, or just taking a look at the horses.

The races went well but when we are going to left “The Quiet Man” that was winning his race in the last lap had an accident, a very serious accident; the horse was lying on the ground whit two hurt legs, some of us went to the place and took a look about what happened and we saw that the horse loose his hoof completely separate of the body and then the horse got up and we could see the other leg that was totally broken from the knee down only connected by a fur strip. We were talking with a couple of Spanish boys that are going to ride the next day and they said to us that the horse will be self-sacrificing. Fortunately the jokey was did not suffer any damage.

After all of this we come back to Ballyglunin to have the dinner of “Master-Chef”.
