Pipe hoping for considered review of Grand National

David Pipe has urged racing’s rulers not to make a “knee-jerk” reaction to the deaths of Synchronised and According To Pete in the Grand National.

Pipe, who won the race in 2008 with Comply Or Die, believes the safety measures in place have improved greatly in recent years.

With another review in the offing, the Nicholashayne handler hopes the appropriate measures are taken.
