Hesi Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Worth noting that the horse, ran 1.06.18, beating Bawalaksana's record in 1999 of 1.06.51. Roch'N'Horse ran 1.06.19, so it's last 200m must have been pretty quick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hesi Posted January 15, 2022 Author Share Posted January 15, 2022 Can that Just reading in the stipendary report that both the 1200m races were hand timed. Cotes de Beaune broke 1.08 Times for all the other distances were electronically timed and more'normal' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buller Rep Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Hand timed therefore definitely not official. It can not be recognized as a race, track, NZ or world record or whatever they were claiming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mardigras Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 And a further example of completely useless whip rules. Just wins and rider outed for 8 days for using the whip greater than permitted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Trader Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Do you think horses should get relegated if the jockey breaches the whip rules? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximus Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Disqualification for breaching the whip rules would surely and quickly stop the practice of jockeys getting their various sins 'covered off' (= reimbursed) by the horses' owners.

MM Perfect example of what you are alluding to, fine and a generous donation to paying the bills while on holiday no doubt covered by the very grateful owners of Lickety Split. A minor incurrence considering the increase in value of the filly as an eventual broodmare. I note the owners also bred the horse M Cameron (LICKETY SPLIT) - Admitted a charge of using the whip in three consecutive strides followed by a further four consecutive strides after a pause of one stride on his mount LICKETY SPLIT inside the 100 metres. After considering submissions the Adjudicative Committee suspended M Cameron’s licence to ride in races from the conclusion of racing on Saturday 26 March up to and including racing on Saturday 9 April, 8 national riding days and imposed a fine of $3,500.
