stuck out like a sore thumb as potential fiddle, but just as many others that look like that get beat - of course it's a **** game - you always have to be taking that into account - as is always being said - no-one makes you play, I do believe, like some others that such OBVIOUS chicanery makes a mockery of the sport and must have put many potential punters off. I know I have friends who don't know the game well, but might have got involved if it wasn't quite so obviously bent.

Surely it makes punting easier if you can get 10/1 about a well in horse?

Stewards. The winner, LANGER DAN (IRE) appeared to show improved form compared with its previous run at Kempton on the 13 January where the gelding finished fourteenth of nineteen runners beaten 31 lengths. The Stewards noted the explanation given by Dan Skelton that having had a poor start to the winter campaign the gelding had been scoped and was found to have ulcers and had benefitted from having received treatment for the stomach ulcers on this occasion. Skelton further explained that LANGER DAN (IRE) had bled on his previous outing at Kempton, which had been reported. LANGER DAN (IRE) was routine tested.
The winner, UNEXPECTED PARTY (FR) appeared to show improved form compared with its previous run at Cheltenham on 27 January where the gelding finished ninth of twelve runners beaten 51 lengths. The Stewards noted the explanation given by Dan Skelton that the gelding had benefitted from a drop back down in trip to 1mile 7 furlongs from 2miles 4 ½ furlongs on this occasion. UNEXPECTED PARTY (FR) was routine tested. |

Think the h'capper will be out for revenge on the Skelton stable some time in the future, 'Revenge is a dish best served cold' as the saying goes.

By:
ive scene less obv jobs banned for 40 days...criminal what they allowed today.
|
|
By:
Thing is Rico everybody knew what was going on so you think the H'capper would have realised also.
|
|
By:

|
|
By:
horses obv drop when they perform poorly..if they suddenly improve 20L then ban them.
|
|
By:
Coz they dont give a fck.
