HOW MANY DAYS FOR SPENCER?

apparently Frank did everything to keep his horse straight, so what was he doing with the left rein just prior to the interference?

if arzeni hits him with his nose,missing a couple of days will be the least of his worry

cud get chucked out imo, slaughtered vasiliy

I think mullering your rival (either accidentally or intentionally) is now allowed (well you might a 2 or 3 day ban, but will keep the race) - so long as you win by more than a nose imo.

Spencer escaped a ban as the stewards decided it must have been accidental.

Surprising that, cos the horse was keeping off Vasily until Spencer started tugging on the left rein...

The standard of stewarding in this country has never been better imo

If I was the owner of the third, I would be appealing against the decision by the stewards. Why do jocks never object now as well?

No ban for that is absolutely disgusting and setting dangerous precedents.

You gotta larf that had Fallon in for not riding out for 5th - erm just possible he was in a state of shock / relief that hadn't ended up on the floor!?
