RWWA Stewards have disqualified Mr Bellette for a total of 10 years!

Stewards were satisfied that Mr Bellette had acted alone in committing these offences.

according to report I read Bellette claims he has used electrical devices for 40 years

Whatever happened to North Western justice?
I imagined a part of the judgement to involve a rodeo ring of girl horse lovers with said apparati in hand and Mr Bellette wearing little more than a pair of leather chaps, application of electrical devices to soft tissue resembling a bald fruit bat.
If you live around Headland way you need to make your own entertainment.
Mr Bellette would benefit too, at the end of his punishment he would be fully trained to teach country and western singers how to yodell. Everybody wins!

Belmont 26 May

Spotted a couple of very unlucky runs on Sat. Nova Sofala (ran 4th) in R7 – unable to obtain clear running at any stage in the straight. And Who Did It (ran 3rd) in R8 – held up for clear running from on straightening until the 250m.

Loml, On The Warpath, Mr Lovalover & Beat The Storm all impressive winners.
Disappointing runs by favs Lachino & Lord Baumay. Both well beaten, both looked to have every chance.
