Not sure how true this is as I read it else where
Drivers were told 70 days will be the starting point for interference in the Inter plus fines. Either way 8 or 10 wks isn't enough as at know stage did she even look to see where the others were on her outside. I've seen a lot lesser incidents get 6wks.
Congrats to the Rattray family on there win, Beautide went super and there will be plenty more win's to come.
Hi Ash, good too see you back on the forum. Last season we argued about IMTQ, after the Miracle Mile we argued about Beautide and Trigger. I am hoping you will be around in another 9 months time so we can squabble over horses again and you can make it a trifecta. You really are a great judge. Cheers.Originally Posted by Maorisidol
The AFL do double suspensions for the Grand Final, so if true re 70 days a starting point, I don't think anyone would argue a case against a 6 month suspension, just as dangerous as what Cramp done.
Stewards report says she got 8 weeks.
A driver got called into the stewards room after a Group 2 last wkend due to whip action and he was informed that if he received a fine it would be double the $$$ due to it being a Group race. So if it was to be the same for suspensions are they saying we would of gave you 4 wks but you get 8 wks due to it being a group 1, if that's the case I think they need to have a good look at the replay again. I agree with you totally Brendan, just as dangerous as what Cramp done. Looking forward to what spin they put on this as to why Lauren only received 8 wks.

Just read this
Vets have just informed connections of I'm Victorious that he has severely damaged 2 tendons and will almost never race again. For connections I hope he can get back to the race's one day as he is such an exciting horse with loads of ability.
8 wks...disgraceful!
the excuse for pulling the wrong rein is not acceptable IMO..(as said on sky later after the race)
the outcome was devastating and its just fortunate that no other runners were caught up in the interference.
That's a poor excuse, maybe she should go back to the trials and learn to drive again.
I'm sorry, but 8 weeks is just not acceptable considering the damage caused and the status of the race. Protected species!!!!
I think you'll find that there were other runners inconvenienced due to the incident as per Reid Sanders on Sky when interviewed by the panel after the last race.
