WAC!

punters rumped again //

if you're giving it bertie big boIIocks and you don't win you must be in bother ...

remember carson taking it easy on one at lingfield, was 5 lengths clear, think thats a harsh comparison george!

Franny Norton, the rider of ELEGIAC, appeared to ease his horse shortly before the winning post. After being interviewed and shown recordings of the incident, Norton explained that he never stopped riding and felt that he lost no momentum, and in his opinion, he had achieved his best possible placing, with the winner, KAANOON, finishing fast on his inside. His explanation was noted.


wtf

his opinion is 100% incorrect.  in my opinion.

i'd need to watch it again but im surprised if they enquire into a rider easing down they accept his version that he didn't

so he eased it down before the line (according to the stewards), got beaten a nostril.  but the stewards are happy he achieved his best possible placing.

hmm ...

oops i misread yours... thought you said correct

no incorrect, but appears to have been let off lightly by virtue of being a senior member of the weighing room ....
