I'm sorry ,but I maintain that our regulators are just not qualified ..................in the same race they ask for a vet examination due to the poor run of Buck Shot...............who was so far out at the weights,10,5 lgths was not a bad run at all (actually ran at least 6 lgths BETTER than its rating)............and yet no action taken when horses suddenly improve 15Kg to win .............................................clueless!!!!!!

The Stipes making no mention of this is what is worrying and every jockey's lawyer should make a copy of the race as an example of no action taken when putting your hands down on a ride. Pierre should have his fine reversed.....

I am not even going to comment on the kilo over...... this shit is killing the poor punters. The horse should have been declared a non-runner when the jockey weighed in.
