I had the winner with 365 and I thought I was ok as they pay double result
Checked their terms but they dont pay double result if f there is an objection by the Clerk of the Scales or if an incorrect number is transmitted in error, are excluded from this offer. |

I always thought there was a pound or two leeway? I know they weren’t the usual conditions today, but they say a jockey can lose a pound on a hot day during a race.

By:
if the bookies paid out for weighing in light there would be weight cloths flying off all over the place, especially from the gambles ...

Longbridge I think you are correct. Only a matter of time before double result goes the same was as early evening BOG

If a jockey weighs in with an incorrect weight, the clerk of the scales will lodge an objection, and a stewards’ enquiry will follow.
The exact process and ruling will then depend upon whether the jockey in question weighed in with too little or too much weight. Weighed In Under Weight Should the jockey weigh in more than a pound below the allocated weight, the horse will be disqualified, and the rider will be penalised – usually in the form of a ban for a specified number of days or a fine. If it is the rider of the winning horse who weighs in light, the horse which finished second will be awarded the race and paid out as the winner. In any event, all runners who finish behind a disqualified runner will have their finishing position upgraded by one – potentially affecting the each way positions and pay-outs. Note that the one-pound variance is permitted to account for any weight the rider may lose due to their exertions during the race. |

how long before the race can they weight out like?
walking round a racecourse in cold weather wont shed any weight..maybe an ounce..to lose 1lb 5oz means he would have to pi$$ a pint ...impossible. |

Had a crap

By:
that's why you weigh out, walk straight to the parade ring, meet connections then get on your horse.
you don't weigh out, go down Wetherspoons for a few shandies, have a dump and then head back to the track in time to ride your horse. |

todays disqualification
Stephen Porter irishracing2.com@gmail.com Hi Regarding todays disqualification 16:55 punchestown, 21 feb ive been reading the report from this on irishracing.com which states.. Evidence was heard from the rider and trainer concerned. Mr. Tegetmeier stated that following weighing out he walked the track and went to the toilet. Could i ask what the rules are in Ireland,how long before a race can a jockey weigh out? Seen crazy that a jockey can weigh out then have time to walk the track. regards Stephen Porter |

By:
What happens to the saddle while the jockey is walking the track? What's to stop anyone slipping in some extra weight or taking some out?

By:
