A horse suffered a suspected heart attack in the second race of Grand National Day at Aintree Racecourse.
Elle Est Belle suffered the suspected heart attack on the run to the line in the 2:20pm Betway Mersey Novices' Hurdle on Saturday.
The Dan Skelton-trained horse, ridden by Harry Skelton, collapsed when finishing fourth and a green tent was erected around the six-year-old. It has since been confirmed that Elle Est Belle was sadly put down.
