As a serious form student, today, in Race 5 in Brisbane I witnessed a ride which undermines a punter's faith in this great industry.
A certain horse was ridden in a manner which defied belief.
It was "climbing" over it's rivals most of the way and after eventually getting a run it was hooked out and was still going so well that it still was beaten only a few lengths-haven't they ever heard of using the whip?
Makes you wonder if this is mentioned in the Stewards reports.
Cheers.
