I hope it doesn't taint the win of Voodoo Lad in the Winterbottom.

Also it is said the investigation was by federal police and not the racing integrity unit.

Victoria Police Assistant Commissioner Neil Paterson has called on anyone with footage relevant to the investigation regarding the raid of Darren Weir's stable on Wednesday to come forward.
Paterson addressed the rumours that there is vision of jiggers being used, and called on anyone to submit potentially valid evidence to the authorities.
"I have heard that there may be footage in the public arena, they may have footage of jiggers being used," Paterson said on Wednesday.
"If that's the case, my call would be to anyone in the public arena, if they have such footage, that they come forward and provide it to Victoria Police for it to be assessed."
After Wednesday morning's raids of Darren Weir's stables at Warrnambool and Ballarat, doubt remained whether any Weir acceptors would take their place in races in the near future.
At a Victoria Police press conference, Racing Victoria's chief executive Giles Thompson clarified that Weir has the all-clear to continue training and accepting with horses in races, with that decision on whether his runners are to be barred or not left up to the stewards, who are led by chief stipe Robert Cram.
"The competing of horses is a matter for stewards," Thompson said on Wednesday.
"They'll determine whether the horses are able to run.
"Certainly [in relation to] whether licensed people should also be stood down, that is a matter for the stewards.
"At the moment there is no information or suggestion to the stewards that there should be any reason why these horses shouldn't be running, or anyone should be stood down at this point in time.
"That's not to say that that may not change over time."
He later added: "The determination at the moment, is that there is no action to be taken."

Let's hope if he is proven guilty that he gets rubbed out for a very long time,
For the time being not proven guilty so I guess his runners won't have that good little kick late in the race for a while

Makes you feel like giving the punt up looking back I’m feeling miffed about my 500ew on Max Dynamite in the 2015 Melbourne Cup.now !
No wonder the non racing people scoff about betting on horses. This shit gives racing such s bad name over it.
