carnage warwick

Should there have been some arrows to show them?

Winner low as 1.15 was 1.76 when at line What a mess

Those who went wide first time and inside second time nailed on to be disqualfied!

winner ok.

does it even matter ?

Seymour Promise must be in trouble.

Machin thinks it might be ok

Whats the rail doing there

come racing !!

ffp backed at 1.15  7855 matched

fpp

Will we see any jocks coming on the idiot box, today, moaning about the new whip rules?

on the bandwagon has won this is imo, 2nd mr palmtree, 2 finishers

farcical scenes

and people wonder why many are giving racing a steer

partition rail between hurdle & chase track

Isn't the hurdle course on the outside ?

Jockey 100% certain he has taken the right course

Dividing rail not showing on the jockeys course map!

Whose fault?

winning jockey seemed pretty confident

Inside track the correct course according to the "winning" jockey!

I can't wait for a race like this with dsq for whip

in hell
so do I

did the 2nd/3rd fav pull up after a circuit because he thought he went the wrong way or something else
if latter he or others will have to be fined /banned
cant put it under nothing to see here

those that went right of rail 1st time around yet went inside 2nd time around must have had a brain freeze - shuda just stuck to same course and then if they hav fooked up then tekk it on the chin

As Stuart Machin pointed out no "H" (hurdles track) marker on that little strip seems to be key, but then that seems a bit farcical as it means you can go either side which I've never seen in a non X country race

I used to do orienteering when I was a boy, so this would never happen to me, as long as they put a hole puncher on the rails. Terrified of horses though

Maybe they should all have a satnav

yep a bob e/w is a guaranteed ban

Another great advert for the NH game along with the first race at Exeter.

I assume as no stewards that everything is ok or they late back from lunch?

Correct - Then it is down to the Vagaries of the Clerk of the Course ...

Which side of the intended Track do you place the 'H' or 'S'?

Pound to a Penny that it is different at Exeter than Ludlow - the way Racing is run.

^  *  Which side of the intended Track do you place the 'H' or 'S'?
----------

On/above the - Left Rail  or Right Rail - of the intended track as you approach

If it means anything racing post giving first 3 with CSF and Tricasts also given. OK? or could it be changed?

so who gets the race, anyone?

FPP

Result stands?

Clerk of the Course mistake surely, not the jockeys?

I cant see how the FPTP can possibly win

Take 1 route 1 lap one the next.

One of the routes must be wrong?

If inside line is correct obody has won?

If outside is correct OT Bandwagon is the winner?

Just cos the Stewards cant be a r s e d lol

And if its not the jockeys fault, then the result stands surely?

partition rails passed on your inside as a jockey unless instructed otherwise by flags

'Winning' jock confident as they walked the course.

Let's hope they walked the correct course

If there is no H marker you do not go around it. But maybe it was mistakenly not put there

that's what they are taught

Was on Bandwagon and Seymour so defo think it ll stand lol farcical thou ..

tremendous advert for horse racing this...

and folk think we should be betting on this trash ?

FPTP should be thrown out, but that would constitute the stewards admitting someone fooked up with the signs.  so leave it as it is and hope everyone forgets about it.

won t the jocks need to no result of stewards before 2nd race so they no which side to go in this race,if not they might all go wrong way again ,
winning jock said rails everywhere because of ground under repair

Have you ever made an error at work?

Agree with Hulk ..

rules of racing not applied

clerk of the course sacked

machin yet to nail his colours to mast on which is correct side to go

so you can go whatever side of partition rails haha

just don't use the pro cush

worst in four rum..abso hopeless.

if theyve decided you can go either side wont someone suggest taking it down

Come racing... lol

I had the second to place, went both ways and I thought I'd done my dough I must say.

doesn't need to be a marker on partition railing

swiftynifty

clerk of the course sacked

----------------------------------------

probably an ex jockey or someones son or daughter who has a few quid or a friend of a friend etc etc etc...

there will be no sackings here swifty...

2 courses rico.  inside and outside, winner went both.  ergo at some point it went the wrong way.

and that rail has been moved hasn't it

realigned

apparently the jocks who went both ways on different circuits told the stewards
I USED TO BE CERTAIN BUT NOW I,M NOT SO SURE

no, just gone the chase track line in 2.30pm

and stewards said  SO DID WE
result stands

as i said earlier, couldn't revise it without conceding they totally fooked up.  so just left it as it was and hoped everyone forgets about it.  racing look after their own, you fook up, don't worry we'll sort the mess out.  result stands.

30yds on a straight part of the track..common sense applied couldnt possibly mek an inch of difference.

correct hulk.

Only in horseracing
Buffoons

What makes this a joke is clearly none of the jockeys who walked the course question saw fit to confirm the course layout, which seems odd as apparently there was a section of railing on or very close to the racing line with no marker on it.

if you're not in the inner sanctum and you fook up you get pulped.  these guys just make the rules up as they go along to get each other out the sh!t

FTP.....I used to be indecisive.....but now I'm not so sure

Presumably it's quite a bit different in a race, riding a horse @30mph. Probably felt normal walking it to go inside.

If the participants who followed the wrong course saved ground, what message are these morons sending?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

it's just one big cosy club hulk...

i include the racing media in that also...

vast vast majority of them run a mile when anything 'controversial' happens imv.

stipendiary steward Fergus Sweeney...

oh that'll be Fergus Sweeney the ex jockey...

how lovely.

media full of ex jockeys...

stewards full of ex jockeys...

next time Manchester United play Liverpool they should let Gary neville be the referee with Roy Keane and Paul Scholes the two linesmen...

seems fair to me.

Hulk.

The winner went the inside route both times

it was 30yds on a straight piece of the track.

An enquiry was held to consider the placings in this race after several runners had appeared to take the
wrong course in the back straight by going to the outside of an isolated section of railings at the 2mile
4furlong start. All riders were interviewed along with the Clerk of the Course and shown recordings of the
incident. Their explanations were noted that all the riders had walked the course with a BHA Jockey Coach
and there were no markers on the railing to denote the hurdle course, and it was also not visible on the
Course Map. The Stewards ordered that the result was to remain unaltered, and no penalties were to be
imposed on any rider. They forwarded a report to the Head Office of the British Horseracing Authority.

C0ck up innit.

so the bha jockey coach didnt notice no signs when walking the course

So - The longer of the 2 Rails shown on this google Earth Map - is to separate the INNER CHASE course from the outer Hurdle Track - just after the 2m4f Start ....

- and - that Longer Rail is entirely understandable - it being shortly after a Start

The Shorter (Partion) Rail shown further out (and perhaps shorter in this Photo than today's Layout ) is to ... err  - do what?

I think the shorter partition rail is there to separate the inner hurdles course from the outer hurdles course, that is the old flat course.

winning jock said it protecting repaired ground

Irrelevant to onlookers map.

You need to re-educate yourself, oh and whilst ur at it get some common sense, ur not very bright!

you're

TOM CRUISE to col jessop in a  few good men,
? if no rules were broken
? you could go either side

why did we need a stewards inquiry ?

and if their using the no one gained any advantage excuse what about losing weight cloth,some tack after a race is finished but before weigh in

onlooker
Do you agree?
