Wingman Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Disclosure, Did not have a bet on the Levin classic, up late cos waited for the very late stipes report from Trentham and licking my wounds because Lisa A didn't cut corner on Sagunto (thereby saving lengths) before moving wider in the straight...'sigh' times many thousands. Back to the heading of this post. Jockeys of 1st and 2nd in Classic (Bosson/Hashizuma) both fined for excessive whip use. Watch the race and you will not see excessiveness but the fines are, akin to a parking warden stitching you for being 3 minutes over or in this case 3 hits too many. Obey the rules and in tight finishes probably lose. Disobey, get fined but arguably you win illegally. This nonsense needs to be sorted out or we will gradually start to lose the people the thoroughbred industry needs the most..owners and punters. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
