THE groom who accompanied Wigmore Hall around the world has admitted to being left "devastated" after the Daily Mirror on Saturday printed a large and graphic front-page picture of the popular horse being shot dead - a move that led to racing uniting in fierce condemnation of the newspaper.
The Michael Bell-trained Wigmore Hall sustained an irreparable leg fracture at Doncaster last weekend that resulted in him being put down by a racecourse veterinary surgeon, and travelling groom Gill Dolman said: "I was absolutely devastated at what happened last Saturday and devastated again to see the images in the Daily Mirror."
Daily Mirror editor-in-chief Lloyd Embley defended his decision and stressed a desire to maintain racing's long association with the tabloid, whose portrayal of Wigmore Hall's death was in the same edition as an eight-page racing pullout extensively backed by bookmaker advertising.
However, an appalled BHA is now seeking an urgent meeting with Embley, whose sensational splash coverage, billed as an ‘exclusive' and ‘The Great Horse Racing Debate', came as a result of an alliance with Animal Aid, the protest group that seeks to have racing banned.
The RSPCA and British Equine Veterinary Association also criticised the red-top title, which in recent years has raced its own horses on the Flat and over jumps under the Mirror Punters Club.
The Trinity Mirror-owned publication, which sells just less than a million copies a day, obtained the pictures on Monday but waited until Friday to inform the BHA it intended to use them in Saturday's edition.
Under the headline, "Shot in the head . . . a tragic end for a £1.3m champion", one of the photographs, showing Wigmore Hall with a gun to his head, was splashed across the top half of the front page.

APPRENTICE jockey Danielle Mooney was banned for 12 days after riding a finish a circuit too early at Wolverhampton on Saturday evening.
Mooney passed the post well clear on the Tim Etherington-trained 100-1 shot Pepperello in the 1m4f handicap and began to ease off, only to realise her error.
"It was an honest mistake," said the rider, who has partnered two winners from 48 rides this year. "I realised when I passed the post."
After holding an inquiry the stewards banned Mooney from October 4 to 16, excluding October 5 when there is no Flat racing in Britain.
Victory went to 2-1 favourite Lucky Jim, with Pepperello finishing a tailed-off last.

Kevin failed to hit the target with his two arrows on the high-class card at the Curragh last Sunday, but after a brief debrief, he will climb back into his preferred trenches of 0-65 handicaps and try put you the way of a profitable day at Gowran Park this afternoon...
Looking Back
I felt the form of the Paddy Power Sprint could prove crucial, but unfortunately I wasn't quite clever enough to pick the right one of the two that interested me!
Discussiontofollow had things go quite well for him from his good draw, but he had no more to give inside the final furlong. While his form doesn't necessarily scream it, the way he shapes suggests to me that he may prove best at five furlongs, a trip that he has only tackled once, resulting in by far the biggest win of his career at Ascot back in July.
The "next best" option was the David Marnane-trained Zalty and he was a slightly unfortunate loser. My fear was that the 63 yards shorter trip than he had to deal with compared to in the Paddy Power Sprint might make the test a little bit too sharp for him were somewhat realised, as if he had another 10 yards to work with, he would have won, but that doesn't tell the full story.
He got plenty of cover and was travelling as well as anything entering the closing stages, but had met with a slight check at a crucial juncture two furlongs out which left him with a little bit more to do than ideal. Whilst he got into the clear a furlong out, he took a slight stumble soon after prior to flashing home to be beaten just a head.
Given that both those incidents I mentioned were indeed "slight" and plenty will no doubt consider them a things of nothing, I feel that small incidents like that have a greater impact on results than many give them credit for, particularly in competitive sprint handicaps such as this.
All told, I do consider Zalty an unlucky loser, which must be so frustrating for his connections, given that it is the second time he has been unlucky in a highly-valuable sprint handicap, on both occasions being the only Irish-trained horse in finishes dominated by British raiders.
He has gone up a total of 11lb for those runs and while I still think seven furlongs could prove to be his optimum distance, I felt he travelled better on Sunday that he had previously over six furlongs and it may be a case of him becoming more adept at sprinting as he gains more experience in that division. He is the type to do well at Meydan, which has been a happy hunting ground for his trainer in recent years.
The second play of the day was at an uncharacteristically short price with Leading Light in the Irish St Leger. While I'm sure plenty are waiting for me to unleash the fury on the ride Joseph O'Brien gave him, I feel no temptation to do so.
Those scenarios where one or a couple of runners race off into a clear advantage over the main body of the field presents the riders in behind with one of the biggest conundrums in race riding. If they go after the leaders too early and the leaders fall in a heap, leaving the chaser in front too soon and having used fuel to make up ground on the sitting ducks, they will get slaughtered after the race.
Likewise, as was the situation in this case, if they take the chance of effectively ignoring the leading bunch in the hope that they will pay for their early exertions and weaken only for them to hold on, they will also get slaughtered.
It was a mess of a race, no question about it, but once Joseph had settled into mid-division in the main group and after the separation had been created between the front two and the rest of the field, he had no real choice but to ride his race against the main group of runners and hope the front two came back.
Of course it was frustrating to see Leading Light beat the rest of the field long after the well-ridden Brown Panther had flown, but this is racing and these mercifully rare occurrences have to be taken on the chin.
This Week's Plays
Today's action is at Gowran Park and it is much more my type of card, so hopefully I've found two that can prove to be profitable selections.
The first play of the day comes in the first division of the Live Music After Racing Handicap (14:55) and it is a race that is crying out for a bet, as it is modest fare and I have negatives attached to the front couple in the market.
I had a few on the shortlist, but the one I'm going to take a chance on at the prices is the Garvan Donnelly-trained Share A Secret.
She doesn't have the most consistent of profiles, but the form of her win at Fairyhouse back in June reads well in the context of this race, with plenty of winners having come out from behind her. She ran flat on her next start at Naas after which she was given a break and I thought she shaped nicely on her return at Roscommon on ground that was a shade soft for her. Thus, I fancied her at Down Royal last time, but she produced a tame effort in a race that those that raced up with the pace (of which she was one) really seemed to struggle in.
While I would have liked to see her show more than she did on that occasion, it really did seem too bad to be true and in what is a weaker race today, I am prepared to forgive it and take another chance on her. The ground will suit and the return to a mile shouldn't be a problem, so hopefully she'll come back to form and run a big race.
The main play of the day comes in the Gowran Park Memberships For 2015 €749 Apprentice Handicap (16:25) and the horse of interest is the Keith Clarke-trained Russian Maria Star.
She has a really interesting profile, being by Medaglia D'Oro out of a full-sister to Russian Rhythm and having realised $200,000 as a yearling. She started her career in Germany and had three starts in maidens over trips from seven furlongs to an extended 10 furlongs without making a serious impact, but since being switched to Keith Clarke, she has shaped with promise in both her starts in Ireland.
Her first run came in a maiden over a clearly inadequate six furlongs at Cork and despite being outpaced throughout, she did make some late gains. Upped to seven furlongs on a suitably firmer surface for a maiden at Down Royal, she showed quite a bit more, again making late headway to be beaten just two lengths. As well as the form and the run itself catching the eye, she showed a likeable way of going and good mechanics that one would generally associate with a better class of animal than a 65-rated filly.
I was surprised that the handicapper left her mark of 65 alone after that effort and now that she steps up to what could well prove to be her optimum distance of a mile and enters handicap company, I suspect she could be capable of improvement.
She is well drawn and has the excellent Ronan Whelan to guide her, so she makes plenty of appeal at her current price of around 11 in what is just an average apprentice handicap.
Recommended Bets
Back Share A Secret 1pts to win @ 11.0 or better - Gowran Park 14:55 Back Russian Maria Star 2pts to win @ 9.0 or better - Gowran Park 16:25

16:00 Sunday 21st September Racing Tips - 21/09/2014
I'm very tempted with Odeliz in Ireland and if there was more juice in the ground I'd be a backer…but there isn't!. At Plumpton Hinton Indiana looks a good thing but it's the sort of contest, especially at this time of year, where very short prices are a little off-putting and this is tougher than his last few runs. The later contest, the 2 mile handicap hurdle, is fascinating given the presence of Triumphant for Plumpton's specialist trainer Gary Moore. The horse looks feasibly treated and a run as good as his effort on the flat last time sees him go close. I'm surprised he's as short as 7/4 though and that makes others look a little over priced. Namely the 2 David Pipe horses and even Springinherstep who is 5/1 but not as close to the favourite in the betting as she might be on account of her penultimate flight fall when sure to win last time out. Sheena West won this last year with Alfraamsey, who has changed hands since, and she saddles Screaming Brave today who is fragile. That's presumably why we've not seen him for such a long time but he won back from a long lay-off as a 6 year old and is now 3lb lower than for that win. He wants it rattling quick and was only beaten 3 and a quarter lengths on his sole course and distance start in 2011 off 10lb higher. That was only 7 starts ago so there's plenty of racing in him if he can be kept right and he can certainly out-run his 33/1 price. He likes to dictate but his penultimate win came from just off the pace and, given the likely pace on here, I hope he's willing to relinquish the lead. Plumpton 16.00 - Screaming Brave 1pt e/w

Leading Investec Derby contender Ol' Man River could run in the Juddmonte Royal Lodge Stakes at Newmarket on Saturday.
Beautifully bred as a son of Montjeu out of the top-class racemare Finsceal Beo, the Aidan O'Brien-trained colt cost 2,850,000 euros at Goffs and made the perfect start to his career when impressing in a maiden at the Curragh last month.
He also holds an entry in the Somerville Tattersall Stakes at HQ on Thursday.
O'Brien said: "Ol' Man River is a possible for the Royal Lodge, we'll know more tomorrow."
Ol' Man River, who travelled well and kept on strongly to beat Aared by three-parts of a length on that first run, is as short as 12-1 with Stan James for the Epsom Classic.

Silk Sari is likely to be supplemented for the Qipco British Champions Fillies And Mares Stakes at Ascot on October 18.
Luca Cumani's four-year-old bolted up in the Park Hill Stakes at Doncaster by five lengths and the talk was of a trip to France.
However, because of the likely slow pace over there, Cumani is thinking of staying closer to home for her last run.
Writing on his website, Cumani said: "She looked to face a stiff task beforehand, and in truth we were hopeful of no more than a place, so to see her romp home by a wide margin was extremely pleasing.
"The key to her improvement was undoubtedly a combination of easy ground and a strongly-run race over a trip that has been threatening to suit her for some time now and the only reason she hasn't run at the trip before is that there haven't been sufficient opportunities.
"There was talk after the race that she might head to France for the Prix de Royallieu but a likely lack of pace in France - she would have to make the running herself - has made us think again and she'll probably head now for the Qipco Fillies and Mares on Champions Day.
"Obviously, we run the risk back in trip of ending up in a race in which there might not be much pace, but she's exceeded expectations this year and seeing as it will be her last race we have nothing to lose."

Charlie Hills is considering supplementing unfortunate Doncaster loser Cotai Glory for the Prix de l'Abbaye at Longchamp on October 5.
The speedy youngster had the Flying Childers in his grasp, when jinking to his right, leaving the saddle to slip and jockey George Baker on the ground, just yards from the post.
Thankfully both horse and rider emerged unscathed from what was a nasty incident.
Hills said: "He's come out of Doncaster in really good form, despite what happened.
"He's absolutely thriving on his racing at present, his home work has improved after each race.
"If the ground stays on the faster side of good, then I'd say we'll probably supplement him for the Abbaye just because he's in such good form."

Bryan Cooper is back riding out and could return to racecourse action in a few weeks following a horror fall at the Cheltenham Festival.
The retained jockey for the powerful Gigginstown House Stud operation suffered a complicated and excruciating multiple fracture of one of his legs in a fall from Clarcam in the Fred Winter Hurdle.
Dr Adrian McGoldrick, Turf Club chief medical officer, described the leg break at the time as "the worst fracture I have ever seen in a lower limb".
Now, Cooper's long period of rehabilitation is finally coming to an end.
Tom, his father and a successful trainer, said: "He's getting there. He's had huge improvement and started riding out last weekend. Hopefully a few weeks and he'll be back in there."

Ann Duffield will speak to owners Qatar Racing about plans for Dark Reckoning following the filly's victory in the Group Three Firth Of Clyde Stakes at Ayr on Saturday.
There is a possibility the daughter of Equiano could run again this season, but her main date is likely to be the Autumn Horses In Training Sales next month.
"She's absolutely fine. She's as tough as old boots and like a little terrier," said the North Yorkshire trainer.
"I've got to talk to the team at Sheikh Fahad's. She is in the Horses In Training Sales at the end of October, so I don't know if we'll go again with her because of that sales entry.
"I don't know what the plan will be. I'll have to discuss it with them first, but she's certainly come out of the race very well.
"We might try to get some more black type or we might go straight to the sales. I don't know if another Group win would enhance her value that much.
"It's difficult to know, but she is in very good heart so there's no reason not to run her again. It's up to the team."
Dark Reckoning's cause was helped being drawn near the stands side while Duffield's other runner, Marsh Pride, could only finish eighth from her low-number stall. However, she finished with a flourish to hearten Duffield.
"The draw bias played into our hands with Dark Reckoning but did not help Marsh Pride," she said.
"Not long after the line she was right on the heels of Dark Reckoning. When PJ (McDonald) could get her across to the faster ground, that golden strip everyone was going on about, she picked up massively and ran very well.
"She's a good filly and wants further than six, but yesterday wasn't her day. She's growing so I don't know what we'll do with her yet."

Mick Winters reports Rebel Fitz to be A1 following his triumphant return from injury at Listowel on Saturday.
While the County Cork trainer will continue to keep an eye on his popular nine-year-old over the next few days, the early indications are the gelding has suffered no recurrence of the injury that forced Winters to scrap plans to run him at the Galway Festival.
"We don't seem to have symptoms whatsoever. We like just to wait a day or two before making a statement but he's been out this morning. He's cool, no heat or anything at this stage, so all is very good," said Winters.
"The worry was he'd only been back three weeks and he had been swimming and on the treadmill, but he was the best horse in the race anyway.
"It would have been an anti-climax if he hadn't been OK this morning. Thankfully he is and he has a ferocious following of people coming to see him at the races. It was great for the public and for us, of course.
"He's tired and a bit quieter than he would be normally. There's a hurdle race in Tipperary in a fortnight, the race he finished second to Captain Cee Bee (two years ago). It might be a bit near, we'll see.
"If he went there he'd have a break after that. Then we'd send him back chasing.
"We had been thinking of the Kerry National but with the ground quickening up there, we thought we'd go for a race on the Flat so there would be no stress on landing after jumping a fence."

Pat Smullen reached 100 winners in a season for the first time with a double at Gowran Park highlighted by the victory of Brooch in the feature Denny Cordell Lavarack & Lanwades Stud Fillies Stakes.
Joseph O'Brien set out to make every yard on the Ralph Beckett-trained Regardez, getting serious off the turn.
But Brooch, who had been in close attendance from the off, made it three almost in a line a furlong out, with Akira on the far rail, and just got the better of the argument close home to score by half a length. Odeliz was third for Karl Burke.
Unraced at two and successful in a Listed race at Killarney last time out, having had her first start at the Galway Festival, Dermot Weld's 11-8 favourite was taking her unbeaten record to three in claiming Group Three honours.
Celebrating his landmark winner, champion jockey-elect Smullen said: "It's probably more a personal thing than anything. It's not an easy achievement in Ireland.
"It's down to the power of the Dermot Weld stable, a good agent and support from a lot of trainers.
"It's a good achievement and I'm delighted with it."
Weld said: "That's wonderful. It's Pat's 100th winner of the season and my 15th Group winner this season.
"She has progressed nicely through the ranks, winning her maiden then a Listed race and now a Group race. I imagine that will probably be it for the year. She could develop into a Group One filly next year. The two English fillies she beat have been running at the top level."
Smullen had moved to within one of the century when Intransive made previous experience count in the Irish Stallion Farms European Breeders Fund (C & G) Maiden, in the same colours as Brooch.
Given a fine front-running ride, the 9-2 chance was still moving strongly at the head of affairs straightening for home and in the end did it quite nicely, scoring by two lengths from Aloft.
Weld said: "He's a nice colt and progressed from Roscommon, where he ran a good second.
"Experience was a big help, he had a good draw and got a good ride. He's a nice progressive two-year-old.
"He's had three runs, so I'll speak to Lord Grimthorpe (owner Khalid Abdullah's racing manager) and see whether he will run again."

Krypton Factor gave rookie trainer George Peckham his first winner when rolling back the years in the totequadpot EBF Stallions Conditions Stakes at Hamilton.
The six-year-old sprinter had not graced the winner's enclosure since lifting the Group One Dubai Golden Shaheen, worth £775,000, at Meydan in 2012 when trained by his owner, Fawzi Nass.
However, he had been showing encouraging signs since being placed with Peckham, who spent four years as assistant to Ed Dunlop, and came good in his third run for his new trainer.
The 10-1 chance showed he still retains plenty of ability as he battled to a neck victory in the hands of Paul Mulrennan over Another Wise Kid to land the feature race on the Scottish track's card.
"I'm delighted to get my first winner, to get it a conditions race makes it more special and, of course, with the old boy Krypton as well," said Peckham, who has a string of 18 at Newmarket and was having his 14th runner since taking out a licence two months ago.
"Mr Nass has been very good to me and to have a horse like Krypton Factor in my first year is a great privilege.
"We were pretty confident he was back to somewhere where he was a couple of years ago. It's great to see him do it, and in a style like that.
"Paul gave him a great ride, no nonsense, grabbed the rail and away he went.
"We haven't got any immediate plans. We just wanted to get his head in front. We'll take stock and see what to do with him.
"Mr Nass has given me a great opportunity. My time with Mr Dunlop is starting to pay off now, I learnt an awful lot from him."
Owner John Fretwell, trainer David Brown and jockey Sean Levey pocketed the first two races with Best Dressed and Munfallet.
Best Dressed (9-2) wore down long-time leader Straightothepoint in the closing stages to claim the Bet totejackpot Nursery Handicap, while Munfallet (15-8 favourite) shrugged off Royal Connoisseur by two and three-quarter lengths in the totepool Supporting The Sport You Love Handicap.
Levey picked up a one-day ban for careless riding on Munfallet. He will be stood down on October 6.
Yorkidding (4-6 favourite) stepped up on her debut fourth to open her account with the minimum of fuss in the British Stallion Studs EBF Maiden Stakes.
Her trainer Mark Johnston and jockey Joe Fanning completed a double when Right Of Appeal (7-2) came late to win the four-runner Bet totetrifecta Handicap.
It was a particularly notable success for the in-form Fanning, as it was a 100th winner of the season.
Eric Alston saddled his first winner for 50 days when Lord Franklin (4-1) registered his third course victory with a gutsy display in the Follow At totepool On Twitter Handicap.
Having made the running he was headed but fought back bravely to deny Raamz and Tectonic in a tight finish under Jason Hart.
The latter was denied a double when he had to settle for second place on Rylee Mooch behind Andrew Elliott on the Simon West-trained Slim Chance (5-1) in the Collect totepool Winnings At Betfred Shops Handicap.

James Nash reports his Guinness Kerry National hero Your Busy to be in flying form following Wednesday's big-race success and is looking forward to further glory over the big fences at Aintree.
The 11-year-old gelding recovered from a first-fence mistake to make nearly all the running under Katie Walsh in the three-mile Listowel Festival highlight and Nash reports he has come out of the race "perfect".
He said: "He's been out in the paddocks the last few days and is bucking and kicking".
Your Busy was a 25-1 chance when getting in as first reserve to land the Kerry National but was an even bigger outsider (33-1) when going close in the Grand Sefton at Aintree last December, staying on well up the long run-in to get within half a length of Rebel Rebellion.
"We'll see in a week or 10 days whether we go next for the Munster National or wait for the Grand Sefton. I'd love him to win over those big fences. He was brilliant last year and really took to them. We were always planning to go back this year," said the Curragh trainer.
"Limerick would be ground dependent as he wouldn't go there if it was soft. But he'll get an entry and we'll have a look.
"He seems in great form, and he doesn't owe us anything at this stage."

Connections of Ajjaadd will scour the programme book to try to find a suitable opportunity for the eight-year-old following his fine effort in Group Three company at Newbury on Saturday.
Ted Powell took jockey Willie Twiston-Davies's advice to go for a Pattern race rather than Doncaster's Portland handicap after steering Ajjaadd to victory at Leicester earlier this month and the sprinter b elied his odds of 33-1 by taking third place in the Dubai International Airport World Trophy.
"You've got to give the jockey his due. He said the horse is better than what you think he is and he suggested a Group Three. It was very good," said Reigate trainer Powell.
"I've put him out in the paddock and he's fantastic, but we're running out of races now.
"I expect we will find one race somewhere, but he's done very well. It's bad enough trying to win a handicap with a low weight.
"There are two many runners in those big races. I'm sure he'd have won more races but sometimes you just can't get through in those big handicaps.
"I'm sure the owner will be looking to see what races there are, but he has won one race this year and finished second and third. You can't grumble, he only cost £2,400 and he's won 10 races."

Charlie Hills is considering supplementing unfortunate Doncaster loser Cotai Glory for the Prix de l'Abbaye at Longchamp on October 5. Cotai Glory snatches defeat from the jaws of victory at Doncaster. Charlie Hills is considering supplementing unfortunate Doncaster loser Cotai Glory for the Prix de l'Abbaye at Longchamp on October 5. The speedy youngster had the Flying Childers Stakes in his grasp, when jinking to his right and leaving jockey George Baker on the ground, just yards from the winning post. Thankfully both horse and rider emerged unscathed from what was a nasty incident. Hills said: "He's come out of Doncaster in really good form, despite what happened. "He's absolutely thriving on his racing at present, his home work has improved after each race. "If the ground stays on the faster side of good, then I'd say we'll probably supplement him for the Abbaye just because he's in such good form." Cotai Glory would be getting 18lb from his elders, should he take his chance. Although no juvenile has won the Abbaye since 1978, Kingsgate Native finished second to Benbaun as a two-year-old in 2007. Sky Bet installed Cotai Glory at a very tempting 11/2 "with a run" in their market for the Abbaye, meaning punters will get their money back if he isn't supplemented or fails to make the line-up for another reason.

Silk Sari is likely to be supplemented for the QIPCO British Champions Fillies And Mares Stakes at Ascot on October 18. Andrea Atzeni and Silk Sari come home clear in the Park Hill Stakes. Luca Cumani's four-year-old bolted up in the Park Hill Stakes at Doncaster by five lengths and the talk was of a trip to France. However, because of the prospect of an unsuitably slow pace over there, Cumani is thinking of staying closer to home for her last run. Writing on his website, the trainer said: "She looked to face a stiff task beforehand, and in truth we were hopeful of no more than a place, so to see her romp home by a wide margin was extremely pleasing. "The key to her improvement was undoubtedly a combination of easy ground and a strongly-run race over a trip that has been threatening to suit her for some time now and the only reason she hasn't run at the trip before is that there haven't been sufficient opportunities. "There was talk after the race that she might head to France for the Prix de Royallieu but a likely lack of pace in France - she would have to make the running herself - has made us think again and she'll probably head now for the QIPCO Fillies and Mares on Champions Day. "Obviously, we run the risk back in trip of ending up in a race in which there might not be much pace, but she's exceeded expectations this year and seeing as it will be her last race we have nothing to lose."

SILVESTRE DE SOUSA has been given until Thursday to pay £20,000 in costs towards a failed appeal hearing in Dubai or risk being put on the forfeit list, which would prevent him from race-riding.
In a case similar to that of Pat Cosgrave, the Godolphin jockey has been left facing a hefty legal bill after challenging a ban received for careless riding in Dubai this year, which ruled him out of the carnival's Super Saturday.
Cosgrave, who owes around £35,000, was put on the Emirates Racing Authority forfeit list a week ago but was granted a stay by the BHA after he applied not to have an automatic disqualification reciprocated.
Through his lawyers De Sousa has challenged the 'reasonableness' of the costs, asked for a breakdown of the fees and a transcript of the appeal before he pays, but has not received a response he considered satisfactory.
De Sousa's wife Victoria, who rode 13 winners under her maiden name Behan, notably the 2006 Gosforth Park Cup on Peace Offering, said on Sunday: "They have come back to us today but still haven't answered our questions, provided a transcript of the hearing or given a breakdown of the costs, other than saying, 'Pay up'.
"Our lawyer has asked them to explain how these costs were 'reasonable' and why they hired two senior lawyers on an appeal for a careless riding ban of two days. It seems very disproportionate.
"They told us we had to pay by Thursday. If we don't they will put Silvestre on the forfeit list, but they still haven't answered any of our questions. A two-day ban shouldn't warrant a £20,000 legal bill."
She added: "We have already paid £12,000 to our lawyers to fight it. If Silvestre pays, it will have cost us £32,000. Silvestre wants to go back to Dubai and he would like these answers."
