Jockey Geroudis fined for weighing 1 kg overweight nearly 2 and a half months after the July has been run.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now,if I am correct ,when a jockey weighs in 'under' then that horse is disqualified.Tellina was placed 3rd.Different rules?Just asking.

Obviously underweight can give a horse an advantage - Overweight is a disadvantage and as such the horse should not be penalized for carrying extra and still earning .

How is it possible to weigh in so much over weight? he must have been so dehydrated to be able to drink enough to put 1kg on at the start?

The fine r10k indicates the severity of the transgression which in my opinion should`ve been dealt with more speedily,or are they so inundated with hearings that it takes nearly 80 days to conlude.

The offense happened on that day and there surely CANNOT be any other evidence to be led - If the scale has been calibrated properly and you weigh out over then what more do you need? Do it straight after the race or last race of the day - Really poor and a slap in the face of punters like me that backed this horse!!
