It is more than 50 years ago but Thomas will recall a young Walter Hoysted [son of the famous trainer] delaying the start of the hurdle race at Sandown . Armed with a shotgun he demanded that no whips were to be used on the horses. Promises were made but they were Australian promises and the lad was given a month in the calaboose. They should have given him a medal.
