There is no logic in what appears to have taken place at Ballarat/ Hope that the papers tomorrow pick it up and report honestly, and that the Racing Minister Martin Pikula has been informed.
The effects are enormous....Ballarat get 10% of the oncourse TAB turnover for th emeeting..that will be effected, sponsor goodwill down the gurgler,surely owners couldn't be in agreement with scratching from a Group 1 race.
You can actually hire sulkies on course ( Australian Sulky Hire via their Facebook page) , and some drivers have their own. Daryl Douglas takes his sulky to the races with him ( maybe they are UFOs)
