Huey Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 We all know this trainer has been well protected by the establishment , that's open and easy for all to see. But isn't there a stand down period for the horses a trainer trains after a DQ, this trainers horses look like they have been directly transferred into a family members name? Does this family member train at the same property as trainer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually a transfer to another trainer is carried out. Whether that person is a family member or otherwise, I guess depends on who is available at short notice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the horses or owners that have offended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That may well be the case , but several precedents have been set in the past whereby the horses were out for a period of time also. This looks more & more like a Clayton's penalty with the transfer straight away to the brother. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah the old Clayton's, a drink when your not having a drink, remember the old TV ad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
