Someone pointed out to me that a certain trainer had 2 horses scratched today for this rule - They are both owned by the same person - I am just speculating here but could it be that both horses were based on a farm somewhere (maybe the owner looked after them and trained them ) and then were just sent to the races under this trainer's name? The facts are limited at this point but I assume the stipes(It was a stipe that scratched them) will investigate to rule out under the lap training - Very strange indeed
VERY KEEN to read the stipes report tomorow regarding this and watch how this incident will be kept under the lap
FRANCOIS P – scratched in terms of Rule 50.8.2 (advised 20 October 2017 / 11:22). An inquiry will be opened into the circumstances surrounding the scratching of FRANCOIS P
I think somebody in the dwang big time
