You're kidding!

Quote from Roger James in our press:

"Not only is there doubt, there was not one piece of evidence produced by stewards that showed it was even He's Remarkable that caused any interference at all.

"That alone should have been sufficient to have the protest dismissed."

Don't agree with any of that. 2 strides after Waratahs Secret was pole-axed McEvoy had He's Remarkable in the very position WS would have been in, not long after that he was 4 deep. Clearly indicates he was pushing out deliberately. The fact that WS was squeezed between two runners does not diminish McEvoys culpability. And Luckygrey lost a good length as a result of the backwash.

Fair decision in my view.

I did notice Ranger seemed to be cruising into the race right before he was smashed. Bring on the Kingston Town!

luckygray in my opinion didn't seem to lose all that much momentum just after that as his jockey hadn't really stoked him up at the time
big run luckygray in any case

The owners of He's Remarkable have applied for leave to appeal over the protest result handed down by Racing Western Australia Stewards in the Railway Stakes

I don't think they have released the Railway prize-money yet, at least 1st & 2nd anyway.

The Racing Penalties Appeal Tribunal has listed the appeal by the connections of He's Remarkable against the stewards' decision to overturn the result of the Railway Stakes for hearing on January 24.

thanks for the update MyHatMyCoat
hadn't heard anything for a while so was thinking the appeal had been dismissed

For a slightly better look at the actual incident.

Whats "remarkable" is the ground made up by Waratahs secret ,after its big check. I appreciate its then had a clear run along the fence to be 'photoed' out of 3rd place, but it must be the fastest last 600 mtr -over a mile- for a long while.

Cheers
