I love the way this is written...
From SARacing (no author listed)... 2010-03-02 17:36:21 JOCKEY ABUSES STARTER, FINED The National Horseracing Authority confirms that at an Inquiry held in Cape Town on 1 March 2010, Jockey Brandon Morgenrood (PICTURED) was charged with a contravention of Rule 72.1.18, in that after leaving the starting stalls he directed abusive language towards the Starter, a licensed official of The National Horseracing Authority of Southern Africa, during the performance of his duties after he had started Race 5 at Kenilworth Racecourse, on 24 February 2010. Mr B Morgenrood pleaded guilty to the above charge. During the same Inquiry, Jockey Brandon Morgenrood was charged with a contravention of Rule 72.1.26, in that on his return to the weighing room and in front of bystanders, by virtue of the abusive language that he used in reference to the people at the start of that race, he brought into disrepute the good name of The National Horseracing Authority, and The National Horseracing Authority Starter who was on duty at the start of the race. Mr B Morgenrood pleaded guilty to the above charge. The Inquiry Board found Mr Morgenrood guilty as charged and in handing down a penalty considered both charges together. The Inquiry Board imposed a R5,000.00 fine, of which R2,500.00 is wholly suspended for a period of one year, provided that Mr Morgenrood is not found guilty of a contravention of Rule 72.1.18 and, or Rule 72.1.26, during that period. Mr Morgenrood has the Right of Appeal against the penalty imposed.

I'm sticking with my original picks... Pocket Power, Mother Russia and Ebony Flyer in the Queens Plate and well good luck to Zirconeum in the Paddock as I have no idea about that one but I like her.
I don't know if he can do it... I keep thinking of him in the Durban July but then he won the Green Point and looked good doing so, so..... This will be the first time against the boys for Ebony Flyer (and I think the first time facing her elders) but she's a reeeally nice girl. The up and coming star of SA (she already is there but I think this is one of those names people here will know soon enough). Mother Russia... well I can see her winning although I really have to root for Pocket Power who, as I said in a previous post, has won this race 4 times. A fantastic day of racing over there! Come home safe, all of you.
