But on this occassion it was correct, if they fail to uphold or make a ruling on other cases, that's a case to answer for the stewards at the track.
The rules of racing state that a horse must be 2 lengths clear of the horse behind and Takeover was not and hampered the second horse which was beaten by such a small margin and was past Takeover just past the post.
Forget the battlers and their money, how dark would the owners of HIW be?
It's their horse. their training fees, their vet fees etc etc.
