Why are these people paying out on a void race. Surely there has to be a ruling on this as far as bookmakers are concerned. I.e all pay out ,or none do,otherwise if you'd backed the ' winner ' with one who wasn't paying out , you' d have every right to kick off - wouldn't you ? And what would the outcome be if you challenged it with betting regulations board ?

Have you never heard of competition. Brownie points on a Bank Holiday worth as much as a full page ad in the Racing Post. I assume they have refunded everyone who backed the losers.

Race 3 - 3:10pm THE totepool SUPPORTING THE SPORT YOU LOVE HANDICAP STAKES (CLASS 2)
The Stewards held an enquiry under Rule (B)11.6 into the start of this race. They interviewed Sam James, the rider of BONDESIRE, Paul Hanagan, the rider of SILVANUS (IRE), James Doyle, the rider of HUMIDOR (IRE), Ryan Moore, the rider of LONG AWAITED (IRE), David Probert, the rider of SWISS CROSS, Kieran O’Neill, the rider of TAURUS TWINS, Daniel Muscutt, the rider of COME ON DAVE (IRE), Martin Lane, the rider of LADY GIBRALTAR, and the Starter. The evidence was that TAURUS TWINS anticipated the start, broke open the gates of its stall and began in advance of the other runners. The Starter immediately called a false start and waved his flag to this effect. The Advance Flag Operator initially took several steps to the right before waving the recall flag. The riders explained that having moved to the side the Advance Flat Operator was out of their line of sight, particularly given the poor visibility due to heavy rain and because of this continued on in the race. Being satisfied that a false start had been declared in that no runner had returned to the Starter after the recall flag had been raised the Stewards declared the race void. At a subsequent enquiry into the start, evidence was also taken from the Advance Flag Operator who confirmed he had taken several steps to the right prior to waving the recall flag and also that he did not blow the whistle as required. As the operating procedures were not followed by the Advance Flat Operator the Stewards decided that no action would be taken against the riders and, further, that a report be forwarded to the British Horseracing Authority. |

 Flag man can't wave flag and blow whistle at the same time |

By:
Looks like they are making the Advance Flag Operator the patsy

|
By:
They should have three flagmen. One to wave the flag one to blow the whistle and one to make sure the other two get out of the way

You could have a large fence rising out of the track when the starter presses the right button I suppose.
