As I had Mr C just about unbeatable in that race...what I will say, is, I believe that under the rules that operate in Victoria, had Mr C run a hole there is no option to declare it a non runner, the placings stand.. That was changed I believe after a race earlier in the year, I am open to correction on that tho.

Had I not had money on Mr C I would still have supported the decision, the horse was not afforded a fair start.. it was that simple.. and IMHO was the best of good things beaten.. Now we could go down the road of once the last gates close the race starts, but how fair would that be? We would still have pple going **********

As for where to now... I believe Mr C is heading for the Saab. dont know how that effects his chances of getting a MC start tho...
