Badger Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 I read the Stewards report for Addington friday night, I presume the report is correct before being released . Race 3 winner not swabbed, this was a premier race for the night. I believe that all winners should be swabbed to uphold the integrity of the industry, also the same horse lost a leg bandage 50 meters from the post, normally this would result in a fine or a least a warning but that never happened. I have spoken to a few trainers who are concerned that R I U are not consistent their policing of the rules. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The race was penalty free! Interesting! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The RIU have proven time & time again, it's not what rule has been breached, it's who has breached it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's presumably called "random testing"! The rationale being if you don't know who is going to be tested you are less likely to be tested. I guess HRNZ are trying to save money. It's a farce but I guess the part time CEO will get some new instructions when on the Hutt Golf course next time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
