Racing Post states that synchronised got his injury while running loose, not in the fall at Bechers.
If you look at this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ur_hgbhX5gg&list=UUCQT60W4n_GZuDcY6K_y3rA&index=2&feature=plpp_video
at 2:45 it looks like he takes a nasty stumble through the fence when running free.
Although in the lead up to that stumble he is cantering really badly so looks to be in pain before that fall. I don't think that he should have been run as he probably wouldn't have had enough puff to complete the race with the full mental focus needed!

Surprised they ran him after he unseated AP before the start to be honest. I was on the finished post at Cheltenham when Synchronised won Beautiful horse.
If I owned a racehorse I would def call it "My Bovine Friend"

I had Neptune Collonges at 40/1 through Betfred.
Shame I only put 25p on it 
(Using up what I had left in my account)
Still £10 from 25p aint too bad

i always back the horse i get in the sweepstake and usually have a tenner on it. drew neptune collonges but couldn't get online to place a bet so didn't bother. i got £60 from the sweepstake though so not at all bad.

Yeah not bad at all! I got mine the day before, which is probably why I got 40/1 rather than 33/1.
