I heard my good mate Steve Cleve has had to shut down the Stewart suspension discussion on the Harness Racing Industry facebook page as it was boiling
I would appreciate any follower of the page, keeping us posted as the sensitive one banned me LOL

Our leading trainer works full time at a flatbread factory but I am sure she is the trainer not Glenn

PP is making it sound like Emma may have some hope for her appeal over penalty as the finding does not state what she injected. She is claiming it was only saline (Hartmann's drips actually contain more than just saline) and has already been successful in getting a Stay. PP is saying that she cannot face an amended charge on appeal so the stewards have slipped up

The comments on the AHRI site regarding one particular decision were disgusting, repulsive and abhorrent. These participants are doing the Industry more harm than good. Scrolling through the comments , I came across a post directed at me. Apparently , we are to blame for some people’s lack of success because we breed good horses and they can’t compete ! Some are breeders/ trainers who race in the $4,500 / $6,000 races and rarely win. I say to them ‘ enjoy what you do, my horses are my passion ‘ .However , horses trained by Emma Stewart never compete in their space and she cannot be held responsible for their results. It’s the Tall Poppy Syndrome where it’s easy pickings to blame others for your own shortcomings.
Emma Stewart pleaded guilty to administering an injection into a horse within 1 clear day of racing. Not once but twice and has now been found guilty. I believe the stay is only so she can appeal severity rather than guilt but happy to be corrected if wrong.
1-10 How much do you value clean, fair, level racing? 1 who gives a toss, 10 want 100% clean, fair, level racing.
Will you be changing trainers given this breach to clean, fair, level racing?
If not, why not? Where is the line? Or is there no line?
This isn't taking anything away from your breeding, I have mentioned in this very thread Stewart has the best bred horses, and your breeding operation is a large part of that. But I think the above questions are fair to ask.
