eljay 1,720 Report post Posted March 23, 2018 All of Dunn's entries have been late scratched. Also Reidman's My Boy Boo which RIU say was scratched by stewards due to being ineligible. This seems strange when horse was accepted last Monday by both the club and HRNZ and this has only arisen today! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kotare_Hunter 748 Report post Posted March 23, 2018 HRNZ have My Boy Boo as being stood down. Failed to make the stipes report at its only 2 starts. Come in Brodie. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Piper 408 Report post Posted March 23, 2018 Due to industry transparency, you would think the reason for being stood down should be published ( easy to access ). Portfolio 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eljay 1,720 Report post Posted March 23, 2018 It was scratched last Sunday at Cambridge and got the customary 5 day stand down. Due to an "administration error" this was not entered against the horse, hence it's acceptance in the field. The ""error" was discovered this morning and immediately righted, hence why horse now shows as "stood down". It will be OK from tomorrow, 5 days up, but as was after official withdrawal time had to be deemed a late scratching.

eljay 1,720 Report post Posted March 23, 2018 p.s. we are all not perfect I overlooked it was scratched at Cambridge hence why I queried. Got the reason when I enquired after arriving at meeting tonight. also: Jack Mackinnon's horse is stabled with Dunn's team hence it also was suffering from the same virus as Robert's ones.

Taku Umanga 194 Report post Posted March 23, 2018 Also - have they changed the rule regarding number of wins needed to drive in races over $15k? If not, how was C Smith able to drive Realmein in race 8? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
