It bugs me when patently false and misleading information is disseminated on the official results website. I was just having a look at the meeting at Ascot on Saturday 3/2/18 when I saw the following information regarding Battle Hero's rider saying it felt uncomfortable in its action. The trouble is that if you read the stewards report it says that it was the rider of Dream Lifter that said it felt uncomfortable, not Battle Hero.

    FFS, now in the next race CRIS says ADRIAN MAKFI Rider advised the gelding felt uncomfortable in its action during running

    ....but the stewards report says:

    ADRIAN MAKFI – Held up from on straightening until approaching the 200m.

    maybe the person doing it is dyslexic!
    it does make for frustration, when you can't trust your source of information.
    one reason why i walked from wa, is that i got sick of highlighting and fixing errors that just kept on coming endlessly.
    but do they give a fig????

    it would be refreshing if somebody from RWWA came on here and said "sorry for the stuff up, we will try to ensure it does not happen again"

    Falcon, when Zucal was in charge he told me that stewards had a list that they had to tick off before each race.
    If they did or didn't, I don't know, but it made no difference whatsover., the errors kept coming.
    What else did not change was that the stewards kept blaming others for the errors after they had happened.
    Was it not their job to make sure it was correct in the first instance?

    It keeps going back to the same thing......accountability.
    Nobody in WA wants it.

    I think we have more chance of a Politician admitting they are wrong.

    Jell also reminds of the political satires Yes Minister and Yes Prime Minister.

    Can hear public servant Humphrey Appleby exclaiming...'punters have never had more accessible information provided for them. Whether it's accurate or not is not the point minister!.'
