Cape Judges Erred With Ladies Mile Result

For a real oldie this does not make sense
Or did the judges see fourth place as a dead-heat when it was the fifth place which was the dead-heat
Which results posted can we trust
Will the judges be fined for bringing the NHRA into

Cape Judges Erred With Ladies Mile Result

There seems to be a pattern developing here. Not the first incident of controversy in recent times, and surely calls into question the integrity of the officiating. Whilst I get that a decision may be taken regarding the redistribution of stakes, what of the hapless punter...!!!

I refer to the incident regarding Babelicious (the well supported favourite), that was carded to wear blinkers on the 28th of April, and raced without. Only to find that the stable companion did have blinkers on and duly won. Next time out, Babelicious did have the blinkers fitted and won easily.

Keep on keeping it on

Bortz’ Three Winners – And That Nearly Nearly…

It doesn't need to show the post on both sides because the judges take the picture like this, as the first horse is about to hit the line they push the button and hold it in so it continues to take as they cross the line. So essentially the photo u see is the exact finish position of all the horses. Camera is lined up with the line and it doesn't take the whole course. Or to make it easier, that picture is the finish line. They then add the lines on a computer to separate

An Absolutely Better Day For Snaith

Morning Mr Editor, Almal ( Everyone )

Thanks for the build up and coverage of the 2nd best day during our Winter

What a Lekker day, ifs and buts and hard luck stories, that's our game.

To King Richard, man you got me and a few locals in the P6 opener...

You are definitely the man, accused of penalty kicks, but My Boy Lollipop, wow !

Even Frans Steyn in his hey day wouldn't have put this one over

Well done to all the winners 🏆 on the day

Hey Cecil
What beats me is PE is no longer easy Justin and the boys get rolled over time and again So why does the PE triple crown winner have to struggle to qualify for the July
It doesn't make sense Surely Mucho denero is out with his last run
Franky Sorry but Pacaya is not up to it I can see drama if 8/18 scratches with Richard paying the fine to drop Sean and ride for
