By:
It's the frequency with which these weight issues are starting to occur that is alarming.
A sort of laying paralysis is happening in my case. How can anyone be confident at what they are seeing? |
|
By:
always thought when you weighed in you were
allowed 2LB ?.Must've been more than 2LB,if I'm right,that is. |
|
By:
i think it's 1lb lighter or 2lb heavier but there's also a ruling that you have to weigh in with the exact equipment you weigh out with, so they'd have him eitehr way

By:
Should a rider weigh in more than one pound under the weight at which he weighed out, the Clerk of the Scales will lodge an objection with the Stewards, who will automatically hold an enquiry. The horse involved will be disqualified and the rider penalised.

2lb wont make a horse thats gona be 3rd/4th/5th/6th/7th into the winner imo.
|
|
By:
It's not always only 2lb less when they weigh in light
|
|
By:
2.5lb per length over 6f...POM would have still won easily with 10st
|
|
By:
