Happy Sunrise Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Held up at times down the straight after deciding to go the rails when it was 4 back the outside at the 1250m and in a sound position. I haven't seen a decision like that for a while. Hope the stipes have a question for him. Maybe he had a bet on Special Dream. As I did. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Sunrise Posted April 3, 2023 Author Share Posted April 3, 2023 and another driver who is sailing close to the wind. He got a month last time he did it. Will probably be charged under the 'Failed to take and reasonable and permissible measures to win race' rule. In my view, Mr Morrison is a bit lucky he won't get the same for his decision despite what he says. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the stipes say, failing to take all reasonable and permissible measures is different from trying to not win the race. I don't think going 4 back the outer to 4 back the inner is seen very often on the track and is worthy of questioning. The defence of saying more favourable runners were on the pegs is a unique argument too. I don't believe drivers try to cheat in races, it is hard enough to win at the best of times. Decision-making and competence, on the other hand, is a different kettle of fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
