As at Sandown, the Stewards abandoned the remainder of the meeting. Police sealed the exits, although a couple of hundred people had panicked and run through the gates. Security in the car park mopped most of those up and herded them back in.

Jockeys were confined to the weighing room under armed guard. Once gathered, they all sat in silence for a minute, many with elbows on knees and heads in hands. There was much rubbing of faces and running of fingers through hair as though reality were being checked, some assurance sought that they were still alive.

Clive Banton broke the silence. ‘What do we do about this?’ he asked.

Kennedy spoke. ‘It’s not what we do about it, it’s what the BHA does. They need to stand Blackaby down so the rest of us are safe.’

Aidan Donnelley said, ‘I think you can safely say Blackaby will be standing himself down. Permanently.’

Banton said, ‘They got Kellagher and Sampson. If Blackaby is on their list, they’ll get him whether he’s riding or not.’

Prophetic words.
