Madras Objection

By Venu | 07-Dec-2019

Wise Don objection upheld decision was too harsh.  After all it was leading the field and won.  It was Chaitanya mistake to run behind Wise Don and bump him.  Agreed Wise Don drifted slightly but it was definitely not the faster moving horse.  It was Chaitanya a who ran into Wise Don.

Venu.

The last two times I saw Red cone was hoisted in the Madras Race Club. One involving Goldie Brown( Riders in that race Barclay.Corner.Jagdish).The other one Rock Victory (Thomson trained)won the race in the steward's room objected Pixie Star or Pixie Girl( Maj Fownes trained). Both the times, I, encashed the bets.

Venu.

It is a surprise to me, that Madras Race Club has a RED Cone, and they used it.

I played Sabiya in that race, but I think the Madras Stewards made the right decision to give Chaitanya the winner. 

Chaitanya moved fast at the finish and was bumped by Wise Don in the last few metres so it is clear that if it wasn't obstructed then it would have won. 

I am happy to see Madras races get competitive. If Madras races continue to be competitive I am sure more people will focus on Madras than other centres. 

 

In my view it is not about favourites winning and losing, but it is about horses winning on merit, I will accept even an 100/1 winning if the horse has merit.

Pathetic Decision. What you mentioned is the same thing.
