Letsgohorseracing - Wednesday Whinge

Details: Published: 24 September 2013

OUR theme – THE GOOD, THE BAD & THE UGLY side of what has happened in racing over the past week continues in the Wednesday Whinge which feedback suggests is what our readers prefer. It gives us an opportunity to provide some of the racing news that is now harder to access or simply isn’t run in the mainstream media because of space restrictions. That doesn’t mean we are steering clear of allowing our readers their weekly whinge on racing topics. This week the key topics of discussion ranged from the Commission of Inquiry in Queensland, to the Glen Boss stance on fines for celebratory gestures at the end of races; and the continuing Gai Waterhouse battle with the stewards in NSW, along with a horse of other topics. We also have our new popular section of ‘stories of interest’ that you may have missed during the past week courtesy of the major racing media.
