I'm not trying to make light of trainer suspensions but to say jockey suspensions are harsher than tranier suspensions is strange. If a jockey gets a 7 day suspension they are really only getting a 5 day one simply because they only have 5 and sometimes 4 day work weeks. A trainer usually gets 15 days and like us or not we have a whole lot more people and animals that depend on us daily than jockeys. Neither are really big deals but i am tired of hearing how easy trainers have it. If I were to get a 6 month suspension (most trainers actually) it would kill my business. I would like to see most of the people here close up your business or quit your job for 6 months and see what happens? Maybe the big trainers can get through fine (as we have seen) but can we treat them differently because they are sucessful?
Personally I think that 6 months is excessive for Rose.
