My guess is they want to stay as far away from this as possible. Out of curiosity, has there been any interactions with Entain group yet? From what I have heard, there has not been, but this could change. -

Racing Victoria stewards have delayed making a decision on the future of Global Harmony after the Lindsay Park-trained former Hong Kong galloper refused to jump from the barriers at Pakenham on Saturday. Listed as the $5.50 second bookmaker favourite with PlayUp for the BM84 The David Bourke Memorial (1400m), Global Harmony loaded smoothly but failed to move when the gates opened, leaving connections and punters frustrated. This isn’t the first time the gelding has exhibited such behavior. Earlier in the year, Global Harmony failed to jump in two Hong Kong starts, earning the nickname the “Chautauqua of Hong Kong,” in reference to the champion Australian sprinter Chautauqua, who was retired after repeatedly refusing to leave the gates late in his career. Lindsay Park co-trainers JD and Will Hayes had been confident the issue was resolved after Global Harmony jumped cleanly in two recent jumpouts and an official trial. However, the gelding displayed his stubborn streak once more on race day. BM84 David Bourke Memmorial Replay – The Open https://horsebetting.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Pakenham-2024-David-Bourke-Memorial-21122024-The-Open-Patrick-Michelle-Payne-Tom-Prebble.mp4 JD Hayes expressed hope for another opportunity to trial the horse before a final decision is made. “We’d love to go back to the trials and see, and then you can determine how many times,” he said. Will Hayes highlighted the gelding’s calm demeanor and intelligence, noting, “He’s quite relaxed behind the barriers. He’s just a smart animal, has got a clock in his head, and doesn’t jump past 12pm.” The stewards’ report detailed the incident, stating: “As the start was effected, Global Harmony stood in the barriers and took no part in the event. Stewards took evidence from co-trainers Will and JD Hayes in relation to the gelding’s barrier record, both in Australia and Hong Kong. Stewards will now review all relevant material before considering the gelding’s racing future and the nature of any embargo which may be placed against Global Harmony.” Stewards have chosen to liaise with Hong Kong officials before deciding on Global Harmony’s future, leaving the horse’s racing career in limbo.
