STRIKE. Would actually be quite hilarious if they all did strike 5 mins before BC day began. Resignations at the BHA would follow I'm sure.

"no strike, again rules are rules."
If the government made a 'rule' saying you had to give up all of your income because you did something they decided they didn't like, would you be happy to go along with that? After all, rules are rules. |

Well said Dr Gonzo and the rule is a stupid rule.

All of us in life have to abide by rules ok some of them we dont like but we have to abide by them in this context the jockeys were asked for a number and they got it so it is up to them to try to make it work i think both the BHA and the jockeys are not going to let racing be destroyed on the whip issue they will work it out somehow but not before this change is given a chance.

sorry virgin,refreshed from dog walking and just full of beans. Will go and read RP on the big seat and return suitably depressed.You can't bet early races now until you've seen track and bias if any.Going forecast means nothing.

jockey strike or punters strike? No jockeys and punters will still bet on something else.No punters and the Bookies will ensure BHA do something.

Dod,Seriously who do the rules benefit?.Young fox was stripped of everything the other day for winning a short head.Harry Bentley on the other hand was woeful and lives to fight another day.We are punishing triers and this has to stop,Obviously nobody wants to see horses smashed for nothing,However if your in with a chance of winning why should a jockey be forced not to win in case he/she is punished severely? I would be in favour of a strike.And I would call for a strike before the grand national.
