Apparently Bailey when asked had anybody ever spoken to him in the manor Nikolic had ,he replied "No..not even a trotting driver!" Disgraceful comment from someone who gained some of his experience on the back of a Harness stewardship. Harness people are incensed

Embattled jockey Danny Nikolic has failed to win a stay of proceedings against Victoria’s chief racing steward Terry Bailey.
In an often bitter and tense hearing before the Racing Appeals And Disciplinary (RAD) Board, chief steward Terry Bailey claimed Nikolic had threatened him and his family, had launched a torrent of abuse against him and had attempted to intimidate him during Tuesday’s Seymour race meeting.
As a result, Bailey had banned Nikolic from riding indefinitely.
Nikolic, who now stands to miss the ride on glamour galloper Mosheen at Flemington on Saturday, countered with claims that Bailey had threatened to end his career and had fabricated the evidence against him.
The tribunal heard that the issue began as Nikolic rode to the starting gates for a race at Seymour and called out to Bailey as he passed him: “Keep your eyes on the road, Terry.”
Bailey later questioned Nikolic over the comment, asking him if he was making a threat.
Nikolic replied that it was a line from a television advertisement and it was meant as a joke.
According to evidence from both sides the issue then escalated before the next race when Bailey was about to take his position in the steward’s tower.
Bailey told the tribunal Nikolic approached him and said: “We’ve all got families c*** and we know where yours lives, c***.”
Nikolic described the allegation as “outrageous.”
Telling the tribunal it had been Bailey who issued the threat telling the jockey: “I told you I would f*** your career.”
He said he had no idea why Bailey would make false claims against him and that “everyone knows I’m fond of families.”
The tribunal heard Tuesday’s incident comes on top of revelations connecting Nikolic with allegedly fixed races and after the jockey has been questioned in relation to a murder.
RAD chairman Russell Lewis said his board preferred the evidence of Bailey and rejected Nikolic’s application for a stay of the order banning him from riding in races.

Hate to say it Garden but for once you and I agree on something. It's comments like that, that exposes Bailey's true character as he is clearly the perfect steward being a narrow minded, hypocritical, vindictive, priick.

Ted the horse is a suck and it had its birthday the other day when all the breaks went its way, I was on the winner Mcblitzem fro something and thought it was pretty soft on the line, Harvey put the stick away with about 75m to go.

OK, I'll have to watch the replay I must admit though I was watching MCblitzem from the outset as I was on it and havent gone back and analysed the race properly yet apart from initially watching it, I think once from the turn onwards immediately after the race.

Just watched the replay of its previous start he only hit it in the last 100m of that race and that's when it fell over the line against that slug Exclusive Glow, McBlitzem is a lot better horse than it.

Gardenstar, Meaning what, considering that it ran 2nd to an absolute superstar 2yo in Sepoy and was brilliantly ridden, not to mention the not so insignificant fact that it wasn't even trained by Smerdon then.
It helps if you get your facts straight mate before you start jumping on other people's bandwaggons otherwise you'll end up with egg on your face as it was trained by Corstens at the time.

Generally when you refer to a a particular raceday i.e.golden slipper day when a horse has actually run in the golden slipper I would have thought that most people would think you were referring to that race but hey that's just me, but anyway if that's what you meant I apologise for the comment.

I know the race you're talking about but it pulled up sore that day and would have bolted in otherwise and he rode it like it like the best horse in the race and to make streama chase. By the way I unloaded on it, that day.

i think you'll find the police were called. I think you'll also find witnesses may be thin on the ground because people don't want to be involved. We are talking about an ongoing murder investigation after all.

The thing wrong with standing him down immediately is double standard.
Say something that could have a double meaning, ie taken as a threat, which there is no proof of btw and the jock gets stood down immediately, also fails in an attempt to get a stay of proceedings.
Suspend a jock for not letting one run on its merits, jock gains a stay of proceedings 99% if not 100% of the time, so basically stewards don't give afk when punters are ripped off to the tune of 100s of thousands, but say something we don't like directed at us and we will act swiftly.
I thought stewards were there to protect the punter as number 1, but they seem to put themselves 1st.
I am in no way condoning DNs behaviour btw.

As more and more races surface that appear to be dubious,what RVL have to ask themselves is, have we got the right stewards in charge, as this all happened under their noses, while they were at the track supposedly doing their jobs
I think it was Dennis Napthine who said after the Smoking Aces story broke, WE run 10,000 since then and for only 1 bad race thats not too bad.
Care to make a follow up Mr Napthine?

You would think it would be mandatory that if a horse weighs in light that there'd be a comprehensive investigation into the betting on the race including Betfair and all Corporates....but that'd only be if you were actually trying to find something. It's much easier to always put it down to an honest mistake and pretend nothing happened. I attended the races for 25 years and don't remember any jockeys weighing in light. All of a sudden it's happening on a semi regular basis.....but heaven forbid that anyone in authority asks any hard questions.

Nikolic did not admit to enticing jockeys riding at Seymour on September 4 to strike, in response to Nikolic being stood down at that meeting, but he did admit to telling the jockeys "if anyone is out of pocket here, I'll cover the difference if you choose to strike".
... was he gonna cover the owners and trainers out of pocket expenses for travelling to the meeting as well, plus refund entry fees for the patrons, and cover lost food costs for the caterers ?

CONTROVERSIAL jockey Danny Nikolic has been found guilty of charges emanating from a confrontation with Victoria's chief steward Terry Baily at a race meeting earlier this month.
The Racing Appeals and Disciplinary Board found Nikolic guilty of the charges of conduct prejudicial to the interests of racing and of dishonest, corrupt, fraudulent or improper conduct.
Bailey claimed Nikolic threatened him and his family in a confrontation at the Seymour racing meeting on September 4.
He subsequently stood Nikolic down from riding indefinitely and stewards later laid the charges against the jockey.
Board chairman Brian Forrest, said Nikolic was not a reliable witness and was motivated by self preservation.
The penalty for Nikolic will be handed down on Tuesday week.

A relative of embattled jockey Danny Nikolic has been captured on closed-circuit TV collecting winnings on the race the jockey allegedly fixed.
CCTV from Melbourne's Crown Casino could prove vital in a criminal case against Nikolic and jockey Mark Zahra over allegations they conspired to manipulate the outcome of a race won by Smoking Aces at Cranbourne in April 2011.
from Racenet
Fairfax Media reported that Police believe the third party was used by Nikolic to disguise his betting on the race.
Police have completed a brief of evidence against Nikolic that has been sent to the Office of Public Prosecutions.
The jockey is currently serving a two-year disqualification after being found guilty by Racing Victoria's Racing Appeals and Disciplinary Board for threatening Victoria's chief steward Terry Bailey.

Disqualified jockey Dan Nikolic has failed in his appeal to VCAT against a two-year disqualification.
Nikolic’s disqualification stems from an altercation with RVL Chairman Of Stewards Terry Bailey at Seymour racecourse on September 4, where Nikolic allegedly threatened Bailey and his family.
The Racing and Appeals Disciplinary Board, headed by Judge Brian Forrest, outed Nikolic over the incident, disqualifying him for two years. Nikolic then took his appeal to VCAT.
Nikolic was found guilty on two charges, one for misconduct and the other for acting in a manner prejudicial to the image, interest and welfare of racing.
He was found guilty of threatening Terry Bailey and his family at Seymour races on September 4.
VCAT today released no details other than to advise the appeal by Nikolic had been dismissed.
New RVL CEO, Bernard Saundry, said he welcomed the decision by VCAT to affirm the finding of the RAD Board, which "vindicates the actions of the Racing Victoria stewards," he said.
VCAT's Judge Macnamara said he has reserved his decision on penalty with the case listed for administrative mention in VCAT on January 22, 2013.
