WhoKnows 791 Report post Posted October 27, 2016 What a shame this dog got a 5 day stand down tonight not enabling it to race on Monday, that's okay though as it qualified for the Cup Semi so I'm sure it will be fine for the Wednesday........must be great to be able to tell the vets how many days you want stood down for, rather than the other way around like it is supposed to be. dogrug, Interestedparty and gary1 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pug 3 Report post Posted October 27, 2016 The stand down runs out at 7.30am on the 31st of October, so it will be able to run on Monday Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pug 3 Report post Posted October 27, 2016 As an example go back to the 22nd of September at addington when another message was stood down from the 21st to the 27th of September. The dog raced on the 27th of September as its stand down finished at 7.30 am that day. Same thing will occur here with Spring Sam alltheway!!! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogrug 53 Report post Posted October 27, 2016 Well,That would make it a 4 day stand down in my book, Unless this is a real new new rule, It should be midnight monday. So it is scratched untill 7.30am monday? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pug 3 Report post Posted October 27, 2016 It is stood down until 7.30am Monday morning which is the cut off time for all scratchings on a race day. Stand downs have worked like this for as long as I can remember. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sure, my interpretation is, the last day of the standown which in this case is 31st October makes it inel Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It got 5 days, it doesn't matter what time it is. 5 days are, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday. So will not be eligible to race until Tuesday.

It's in the wording, the dog is stood down UNTIL the 31st not to the 1st hence the reason it can race on the 31st. A stand down doesn't say up to and including it just says when to. Which is exactly how it happened in the example I gave you earlier alltheway!!! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Sharp 224 Report post Posted October 28, 2016 This might be a stupid question but has anyone bothered to look it up in the rule book or contacted a stipe & asked about it instead of just guessing? My understanding of the rule & have asked a few stipes I know about it from when my girl was racing & got a stand-down due to injury is that it is "up to & including" the final date which would mean that Sam can't race until after Monday but he can be nominated for race that is held on Tuesday. Not all stipes put that in the reports I.E if a dog is stood down at a meeting on Thursday at 3:45pm then the stand-down ends at 3:45pm on the Monday. If I am wrong about this then I will admit it.

lottabull 77 Report post Posted October 28, 2016 I know a stand down can be over turned by a vet so 5 days or more it doesn't really matter its basically a guide line if a trainer wishes to challenge a vet they can Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
