Top figures from the world of racing pose grotesquely on the corpses of thoroughbreds

Elliott is a famous trainer and jockey. He was the youngest trainer of a Grand National winner in 2007. A photo of him sitting on Morgan was released two weeks before the Cheltenham Gold Cup and a month before Grand Nats. It was circulated on WhatsApp within a small circle at Cullentra. It has been kept for more than a year and is thought to be a deliberate attempt to hurt Elliott. The image has caused outrage among the racing industry. Another trainer said it 'blown his mind' and showed 'utter disrespect' for horses. Elliott got engaged to his girlfriend Annie Bowles in 2010.
