A third shared: "Only positive thing to come from that Broadway Boy fall is a whole generation of kids put off this for life."

One person said of the incident: "Why are they ignoring the fact #broadwayboy fell so horrrically? Everyone saw. He was out front. All this celebrating, ignoring an horrific fall because they want to pretend it doesnt matter."

Another commented: "The Grand National is the only horse race I ever take an interest in but I’ll give it a miss in future after watching that Broadway Boy fall. Poor poor animal, I hope he somehow survived."

Others called on ITV, the channel airing the Grand National, to give an update on Broadway Baby "immediately". One person wrote in a post: "Interviews can wait."
