Chapman had the chance to Question on the day disqual and blew it, if they can do it in France are we so inept we cant do it over here.
|
|
By:
Agreed. All those connected with Manxman deservedly benefited from its promotion to winner of the race.
All except those who backed it to win !!! Utter nonsensical situation. |
|
By:
Of course it could be done in the UK but nothing would change in terms of paying out punters, as stated previously, disqualifying one on the day which may then be re-instated following the whip review committee still leaves one group of punters disgruntled. The only possible solution would be for the bookies to withhold payment until the whip review was completed and pay out on the result they arrive at and that is never going to happen.
Little different to expecting the same from drug disqualifications, just not going to happen and whatever method was used the result for one set of punters would be the same. |

By:
why would ONE be reinstated we just advertise/employ stewards who can count to 10,and tell morons like Kevin Blake,Tony Martin,ITV who have spent a week searching for loopholes etc to get out of the FOOKING game

You need to learn the rules before ranting about those that do 1st TP!!

I can't believe there are people still whinging about not getting paid out on the second -grow up lads.Result on the day is what counts-end of story.

wel sed ed..we nah the dance.

By:
Stewards on the day already announce enquiry immediately post race and object to the winner regarding rule infringement ( ie crossing, bumping ) exp if winning margin is minimal.
Absolutely no reason why same can't be applied to a jockey using 10 strikes with the whip. The world and his wife could see this on the first repplay of the finish from the 2f pole. Race should should have been awarded to Manxman, before weighed in announcement. |

Not a case of whinging !! More a case of consistency. Most bookenow pay out on 1st past the post and amended result, this decision is made immediately after the race following a stewards enquiry/ objection. Same should be applied to whip ruling |
|
By:
You also need to learn the rules as they stand Facts, not cut and dried on the day as things stand.
|
|
By:
The rules are clear. Use 10 strikes of the whip = disqualification.
It's the decision that such an infringement can only be convinced by a separate committee - days after the race. That's the ludicrous issue at stake here ! |
|
By:
Btw almost guaranteed that had they finished with the result the other way around there would have been less howling as the Irish horse was a relative outsider and btw I backed the 2nd ew and no complaints about either ride from apprentices even if not agreeing with the whip rules in the first place.
|
|
By:
Just proves you are moaning because you don't know the rules Facts, had the review committee found that even one of the perceived strikes did not make contact of was used for safety reasons the disqualification question goes away!!! hth
|
|
By:
was no safety issue and even if one had missed the raising of the arm coming down with the whip counts as a hit even if missing
|

By:
LOL 1st TP!!

By:
if oily bel,l and ITV don't like or want to highlight whip issues on TV they must be preying TIFFANY isn't involved in a close finish today at ASCOT

Now you bring up a hypothetical position ?! Fact - 10 strikes - proved. Disqualified.I This decision scenario could have occurred immediately post race by the Stewards. |
