1st 4 punters robbed-nothing in the stewards report.

West Australian Racing
Narrogin Friday race 2: here is the photo for 4th/5th. Formidable Storm on the inside was holding Lohnmac on the outside in yellow easily until S.Colgate decides to sit up on Formidable Storm costing it 4th place without a shadow of a doubt. The stewards said nothing. Laughable.

    Jockeys get fined for not riding them out even when the stewards admit the offence didn't materially affect the finish order yet here the finish order was affected and there's crickets. So inconsistent.

    How good did the track look. Hats off to Narrogin.

    Just having a look at Esperance 2-12-17 race 1. This was in the stewards report:
    Apprentice R. Tan in accompaniment with the Riding Coach was shown a
    section of the film over the concluding stages and advised to continue to ride his mounts out fully
    to the winning line. 

     Well you've got to love them for trying but WTF? There was absolutely zero wrong with how Randy handled that runner. Who is in charge? Do they actually know what they are doing?
     It's red, pale blue armbands and cap, 3rd the fence.

    You sure they didn't get the wrong jockey??? Simone on the 2nd horse stopped riding a few strides out and nearly looked to pull it up, but randy was on a animal paddling at best and if he did much more he could have been accused of flogging a dead horse!?!?!!?!?

    horse was absolutely gone... i reckon they've got the wrong rider.

    Accepting they have the wrong one, then how can the rider sit there and cop the admonishment?

    because it is not worth arguing  with them?????..especially as an apprentice!!! Maybe it was a typo in the stewards report and it was actually Simone they spoke to

       "in accompaniment with the Riding Coach".....That's a pretty big typo! That line confirms it was an apprentice.

    so we should soon be seeing in a stewards report that they have apologised to tan. L-)

    Yeah I know Rodent, but am baffled how they could nail Randy for that. Based on that theory they should have also warned Luas for not getting stuck into the last horse over the line!!!!
