Nsw - Australia Stewards Summoned A Punter To Appear Before Them

By Ayyarnet | 09-May-2020

Friends:

We have heard of our Stewards asking Trainer or Jockey to appear before them for an enquiry. Have you heard any time Stewards asking a Punter to appear before them ?

Yes this has happened last week in Australia.

Punter and commentator Glenn Pollett has been called to face a Racing NSW stewards inquiry on Thursday over comments made about jockey James McDonald. 

A complaint was made to stewards following comments by Pollett on an online racing show flippantly suggesting McDonald may have been betting on races.

The comments under investigation were made during a review show for RacingRant on April 20 after McDonald's win aboard Kinane in the Frank Packer Plate.

Punter and commentator Glenn Pollett said in his commentory that the Jockey rode an excellent race and won in such acway as if he himself made a bet for the Winner! Jockey complained to the Stewards and stewards summoned Poollett and asked him to produce evidence thst the Jockey madean on line bet for the winner. Later they have fined him $ 10,000 for his unnecessary remark in the commentary.
