She was bumping up and down in the saddle from two furlongs out,used the whip once,clearly saw the winner being driven clear.
There is no way she thought there was another circuit! |

The Stewards held an enquiry into the running and riding of SIROP DE MENTHE (FR), ridden by Lucy Gardner, and trained by Susan Gardner, which was not asked for any effort on the run in before finishing second, beaten 4 ½ lengths for first place. They interviewed the rider and the trainer and heard a report from the Veterinary Officer. The rider stated that she had mistaken the race distance, thinking she had another circuit to go before the finish and therefore she had not ridden the gelding out. Having heard her evidence and viewed recordings of the race the Stewards found the rider in breach of Rule (B)59.3.2.2. They suspended her for 14 days as follows: Sunday 8, Monday 9, Tuesday 10, Wednesday 11, Thursday 12, Friday 13, Saturday 14, Sunday 15, Monday 16, Tuesday 17, Wednesday 18, Thursday 19, Friday 20 and Saturday 21 March 2015.

I think you're watching the wrong horse/race. There was no bumping, or use of whip at any point in the race. |

14 days is nothing to her ... she wouldn't even normally have a ride in that period anyways

money on the human?

By:
14 days - that is a complete joke
Misjudged the distance? Even a retardddddddddddddd wouldn't believe that!!! Another example of jock/trainer/owner being allowed to do as they please, no wonder people are being driven away from the game, if the penalties were more severe then this carp wouldn't happen |
