Undertsand "Paul Roy's" horses are registered in his wifes name?

can anyone confirm?

some questions?

1) Is this within BHA rules? as understood Anothony Ramsden got done for not registering Mickmacmagoogle corretly?
2) Can Paul Roy lay horses his wife "owns"
3) On Nov 1st  new owner regulations come into force, can he then lay horses (or back the opposition to the hroses) from the Yards his wifes owns in
4) can the Trainer ring Mr Roy and discuss the chances of the horses his wife owns - or does the trainer need to have that conversation with the actual owner?

Be thinking about doing the same - and want to know where I will stand.

I have seven days to either sell two horses, or stop betting

The Harry F case might be of interest on this. The full verdict is on the link below but point 2 could be relevant in terms of your question;

2.The first occasion was alleged to be a breach of Rule 247 of the Rules of Racing; the second was said to be a breach of the modern equivalents in the new Rule Book either Rule (A)35.4 or Rule (E)92.2. Put summarily, these provisions all outlaw lay betting against a horse whether by an owner of that horse, or by a person who plays an active part in managing it if in joint ownership, or by a “service provider” to its owner.

roggrain - No idea what constitutes a 'service provider' in this context. Maybe the BHA have used this terms because of its vagueness?

Well then,Magician, if you are serious why don't you ask the BHA?

Apparently in a race earlier today there was a horse running (tho i haven't seen the race) that maybe today wasn't his day Devil

If you register a horse in a your wifes name you are hardly concealing it and clearly will be privy to inside information and thus banned (and now penalised) for laying.  Abroad they often have very strict rules on who the owner is and have to prove they have the funds and are actually paying for horses in training.  UK doesnt.  Personally I say backing with inside info is fine, laying should be a blanket no-no.   I think you know perfectly well the answers to your questions.  How often does Sir Henry give direct updates to Abdulla or Noseda to Ogden, etc.

actually I dont know the answer to my own question.... and niether does the BHA apparently because they currently cant answer and are still trying to formulate one...

so clearly it is not easy or black and white.... especially as it seems Paul Roys 'horse's' are in his wifes name....

what were your questions roggrain?
Report roggrain • October 25, 2011 6:14 PM BST
Magician. To do with attendance figures. (I'm interested in comparing numbers for Sundays vs Mondays/Tuesdays as I feel flat racing is missing an opportunity by not staging enough racing on Sundays)
And, regarding blindfolds. There have been a lot of instances recently of jockeys struggling with them after the gate opens. I think,in addition to the frustration of seeing a horse you've backed standing in the gate while the jockey fumbles with the blindfold there is the inevitable event of a horse throwing the jockey while the jockey is fumbling,with the spectre of a blindfolded runner bolting.
I've asked them if there should be a rule requiring all blindfolds to be removed before the stalls are opened.
Report onlooker • October 25, 2011 6:20 PM BST
That will disappoint a few 'connections', roggrain ....

On the other hand - now that they don't have to bother using the whip - there's no need to fumble with the blindfold.

Yes,onloooker. The possible integrity issue had occured to me too.
I forgot, another thing I brought up with them was that it cannot possibly be within the rules for a runner to race
blindfolded and yet, the race is deemed to have started the moment the gate opens ,so any horse with it's blindfold still on is racing blindfolded!
Maybe that's what's taking them so long to get their heads around.

Good luck with that... let see what happens...

are there trainers and connections that have had increase in the number of horses 'stuck' in blindfolds recently?

Report topfarrier • October 25, 2011 8:56 PM BST
Might well be for tax reasons.

If a person is deemed to be a professional [debatable in this case]he may be liable to pay tax on a horse he sells.

That's how it is in Ireland anyway and i imagine it is the same over there.

Which is why you see a lot of trainers run horses in their wifes or mothers name.

when the new rule comes in in 5 days.... I will break the rule almost daily...

As will many other owners, via bets on BF Daq and ladbrokes etc.

BHAs only job in life will be rubbing out owners...

and I cant imagine Lads will be very happy about handing over thier punters to the BHA to exclude form racing....
