TwentY$BilL 29 Report post Posted December 4, 2017 BLACK ART - broke prior to the start checking trailing runner with a false start being declared. Driver A Fitzgerald elected to remain in his barrier position for the re-start. Mr Fitzgerald was advised his runner will now be drawn unruly for mobile starts. For some reason Greg suggested Black Art was going to the outside. I wonder where that came from as nothing in Stipes report. Having already been suspended for 3 days and relegated from 3rd to 4th in Race 3 I noticed Ross Payne with one foot out of the foot rests during the concluding stages of Race 10. KARDESLER - the sulky seat on this horse slipped in the early stages with driver R Payne discarding it to the infield nearing the 1700 metres. Raced greenly and hung outwards near the 1600 metres. Some days just don't get better. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had to go back and watch the video a few times. It was a good throw! 5 hours ago, TwentY$BilL said: For some reason Greg suggested Black Art was going to the outside.

JackSprat 947 Report post Posted December 5, 2017 It was a good piece of horsemanship, as it looked at though the seat gave way at the jump. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

'suggested'would not imply a statement However, I watched the replay. Mark McNamara apologised before the restart for saying it was going to the outside as that was what they were told. Greg was told incorrect information. I suppose the question is, as $20 said, where did that information come from? From past experiences, we all know that is not something that will go on a stipes report. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was watching it live so was responding from that experience. I was left with no doubt it was going to the outside until it wasn't.
