Hole in saddle must rank up there as one of the 5hittiest reasons for a disqualification, don't know if it's unlucky, part of your job is making sure your tools are in good order.

1 1/2 lb leniency as well

Lost 2lb on way round through weight cloth ,,,unfortunate..
|
|
By:
Hushwing, you've assume it fell out at the start of the race. We don't know when it fell out. Also quite possible the original winner was idling and would have pulled out more as well so may have had more than 2lb in hand. Not as simple as you suggest.

By:
Hughes unlucky that when the weight fell out it was on a winning ride-wonder what the odds were on that ????
|
|
By:
Horse was idling. I doubt 2lb would have madea scrap of difference tbh
|
|
By:
In all honesty in the modern day it should not be happening. Mr Niven or head traveling lad should be checking all tack. Yet another debate to be had
