2.00 Plumpton, Stole my money

Why Did Paddy Brennan persist with Beat Topper when it was clear it wasn't going to run? 3 times he got on and off the horse cos it was being a monkey, he sat back on it seconds before the starter raised his flag only for the horse to refuse under orders. Should have been pulled prior to race, lost our dough and deduction rule in the pound. Disgusting.
