Has the Victorian system of giving time to suspended jockeys now set a precedent. 3 weeks for basically giving one a run?

    Just a question...has she had any rides for Mick Price since ??? If so then Mick must of either been aware of the horse being given a run or is a very forgiving man.

    3 weeks is laughable.

    JayJay will agree...in the good old days she would have got 6 months with no appeal. it was pretty blatant, one hopes the trainers were intensly questioned.

    The Sherrif , John Schreck gave 7 time  Sydney metro jockey winning title rider Ron Quinton  12 months disq  re a ride in a Randwick mid week race for Les Bridge , didnt ride it on its merits to win 

    Ray Murrihy who was a steward nearly everywhere , back in his Trot stewards days , he boasted , look my 1st night in charge at Albion Park , look i gave some bloke 12 months 

    They didnt muck around back then

    In these days of mental health and all the the other reasons why Sonny that becomes the case. But if that is the reality don’t accept another ride

    Shin. Should get a month, he was several horses off the fence rounding the bend before deciding he wanted to be back in it.

    That all could have put Jamie Kah over the fence.

    Gator announced today he believed she should not have been penalised at all and the incident today proves it. Go figure.

    I thought after watching race you are in for a nice holiday,after that,he just about put her over the fence,then saying I didn't de her,imagine what was going through her mind,after what she went through last year,then he only gets that 10 meetings.

    What’s your angle Glamour. So what happens about that one. That’s all about B.Shins mistake than anything else. It could have been any jockey who has hit the deck to his inside didn’t there mental health get as impacted as much as hers. So is her defence from now going forwards when not taking a run due to having flashbacks from her last fall. As I said if that’s the case time to look for another profession
