I backed Tabaran but given the fact that the flag man on the side of the track was waving his chequered flag, what else was danny cook meant to think? If were meant to keep on the same course why was he waving his flag? Sums up what an absolute shambles British Racing is.

Just no consistency. At Chepstow a few weeks ago the fence wasnt dolled off just some bloke pointing them round the fence. No difference there. Outrageous scenes.
