Race 3. Trainer R Rogers was fined $25 under A.R.R 175(k) for failing to provide
racing colours for EMPRESS OF IRELAND necessitating in the club colours to be
worn. 

He had 3 runners in the race all owned by the same owners, I thought that was why a club had club colours

    Why the fine?

    The Chairman has his colors as Red, Green Maltese Cross & Cap, but yet they race in a red cap, no fine there?

    If he can't afford the 25 bux, can he elect to take a jail term?

    $25?

    That is the funniest thing I have read for a long time.

    How much more than $25 for a set of silks?

    It is just another example of just how out of touch their standards are I reckon. I mean fair dinkum why $25?
    It's either a decent amount or nothing at all surely.

    If the figure had been determined to cover the cleaning costs then that's fair enough but it really doesn't need to be in the stewards report. Get real- get serious on the serious bloody issues, suspend people properly, fine people properly. Make yourselves out to be tigers with teeth that you are bloody well prepared to use.

    How many Owners other than Peters & Syndicates would usually have 3 runners in same race. Thought that was what Club Colors were for. Next time they want them to wear Aust Day Colours or Junior rider colours the Owners should tell them to stick it.
