Paul Townend has issued a statement: “I thought I heard a shout and that the last fence was being bypassed. It was a split-second reaction. I wish to apologise to connections and to punters. I’d like to leave this behind me and move on with today’s rides.”
This Paul Townend stuff is getting nasty now. He made a mistake, I firmly believe something made him doubt he had to jump the fence, why else would he take that action. He realised all too late what he had done.
