It's a terrible thing to do if the allegations are proven - grossly unfair on the owners and trainers of the horses he rode.
But I also don't like the head to head bet. It can be exploited in the way Walker allegedly did, and it could also lead to horses being pushed and ridden aggressively even when they're tired and out of contention in a race.

In more positive news, the first 3yo stakes races of the season on Saturday!
Nice fields. I'm going to be closely watching Niki Piki Milo and Avisto in the Fillies Stakes and Eletist, Hilarious Honour and Bel Sorriso in the Guineas. But I'll be working at Ellerslie on Saturday - the big jumping races there. Not a huge fan of jumps, but there are some other nice races on the card there too.

Finally catching up... nice to see that both Fix and Weissmuller won.
I see that Wattle Bay is back (on Wednesday).Been a long time now... had he been injured? Any idea?

Great performances by both. So happy to see Fix back in top form. Very nice stakes win by Avisto as well.
That's a good question about Wattle Bay! Hasn't raced since October last year. I'll see what I can find out.

That was a really nice win last week, wasn't it? Will you be going this weekend? Nice to read about the good trials for both Bounding and Veyron.
