I have no idea. Anything would be speculation on my part and I don't want to do that.

it's awful IMO that the track would bar him publicly then refuse to say why, it always leads to speculation and gossip.

I'm sure douglas does know...I just think it's low for the track to announce the ban without stating the reason for the ban. thats all.

I agree...total BS...give the reasoning, or don't make the announcement at all.

To be fair, they may not have made an announcement, the story may have spread causing Mike Welsch to investigate.

I'm not saying that's the case but these stories make their way around the racetrack in a hurry. I imagine the reason will be out very shortly.

In the recent past, Calder "ruled off" another jockey in the same manner. Apparantly it prevents the jockey from obtaining legal counsel in order to get an appeal on a stewards ruling. If I remember the details correctly, the other jockey that was ruled off in this manner did not perservere with his mount, thereby causing the order of finish to obviously be different.
Reading the charts (Douglas' mounts) for the past 4-5 days may shed some light on the facts.
I don't feel that Calder does this without some merit.

I just spoke to Rene....even he doesn't know what this is about...but he did say that Dicksie knew.....he always knows. Apparently, and I don't think this will come as a surprise to anyone, his UFO picks up EVERYTHING.


Oh, wait, I forgot to add, his agent said he has no idea who the Bid is but if he did he wouldn't have told him the story.
