The hearing of Charges laid against L Justice following detection of a prohibited substance in Smoken Up after ID 11 final to be heard 23 / 24 August 2011
A hearing into the result of Australasia's premier harness race , four and a half months after the race is run. What a joke!
This should have been sorted out months ago. It's not helping our sports image. If found guilty it will be dissapointing for the horse, I thought he really deserved to win it.
Don't die wondering !
me too i wish it was over
I heard that smoken up was the cause of the earthquakes in nz .......and LJ had some thing to do with the kennedy assasination and john wesley huffman is a rampent ##### which one of these statements is true........rumors and rumblings are not always true .........all the facts will be released and yes john i have all your posts on file please be sure you check liable laws before you post, and admin you have a responsability to uphold them as well ..........signed the real LANCE JUSTICE
i think the saddest thing is that imthemightyquinn should have and would have been horse of the year if this was sorted out, the sort of priceless accolade that happens less then once in a life time for the owners, breeders, trainer and driver
Good Call Lance
Have whoever you want on but don't ever have yourself on
When SMOKEN up is disqualified in 10 days time.I'm Themightyquinn will become Australian harness horse of the year
Horses disqualified are not eligible. Judging begins at the end of the season.
He will also become the inter dominion champion.
Tears will be shed, but that's life .
Step aside from all the hype.
Fact is, the horse returned a positive swab in the biggest race in the harness racing calendar.
The only thing that remains, is how big a penalty the trainer will get.
wait till you get all the facts before you pass judgement.................and then you can cast the first stone ...................
My comments were the facts
SMOKEN UP raced and returned a positive swab
How it happened is irrelevant, refer hrnz rule book.
Every licensed trainer abides by those rules, Bleating they are unfair after one is broken
will not change the result, no matter what colorful story that is created in defense.
SMOKEN UP will be disqualified.
It's only the trainers penalty left for Judgement
This is not a c.o race at bendigo it's the Inter Dominion final .
The integrity of harness racing, is at stake.
The matter will not be treated lightly by hrnz.nor should it be.
