Wrist Art non runner

precedent set. 2 others slowly away this aft were not declared non runners

good question innit.  Rather more severe case than the Derby ?

yeah but this went without the jock TTT

chucked in at the weights then howard

they are just checking the camera in it's stall

It's deemed a runner!

How Wrist Art can be deemed a runner when it's up on it's hind legs as the stalls open, compared to Benvenuto Cellini, goodness knows.

joke racing now

Logic has just disappeared over the horizon with its arrsse on fire.

a total farce everyday

Once in the stalls & under starters orders,they should all
be rnrs.

Only The Derby was an abuse of the Rules

its an unseated rider,all bets stand

I totally agree.

But even worse than a stupid rule, is a stupid rule applied with no consistency.

A Stall opening slowly,fair enough

Yes the rule needs to be changed and go back to how it was for years with very few issues. Now we have no idea what's going on. How the Derby fav was a non runner whilst  Wrist Art is a runner is an extraordinary situation.

IMHO going on recent events I expected a non runner. I done a lazy bet fav 4 places and expected a 50% reduction or something so happy.

Racings version of VAR.

I think there was a critical difference here compared to the Derby, World Pool is not involved today.

Horse was clearly up on his hind legs before the stalls opened, the excuse the other day whereby if the starter had chance he'd have delayed and got the horse vetted should have applied here, therefore horse should have been declared a non runner

It is only a gelding, no need to protect it's status.

The sport is in dire straits.

The decision makers at the top need to be held accountable for their inconsistencies.

a multi million pound sport ran by absolute and utter clowns.

Mr Magoo would look a visionary compared to the hapless,clueless BHA

they are literally a laughing stock
