Everyone have a look at R7 Menangle 20.09.11 especially the stewards.
A little bit of background first Franco Torres backed from 2.80 to 1.50 fixed odds.
Stablemate Our Amazing Art in the "race".
Top of the straight Pizzuto (OAA) pulls out and he starts whipping the horse in his normal manner no problem here.
150m out our mate Kev looks across at the horse he is about to beat and realises it is the heavily backed stablemate.
Problem starts now.
He does not touch his horse again and Franco Torres kicks back and wins.
I have seen some bad things at the trots but none worse than this.
If he doesnt get life for his drive the stewards should all give it up.
We should all give it up.
He has blatantly right under the stewards and the punters noses pulled this horse up.
There are no excuses, reasons or explanations for this drive.
LIFE
