    SS, it was a terrible case and the JC did nothing about it at the time but this case did lead to the arrangement between Betfair and the HRA.  Over £170k was stolen from the punters.

    Wallace ..out of curiousity what was the case you mention please ?<br>I saw the Royal jet race live..with no financial interest…but I was watching Royal jet whom I have always thought of as being a classic " job horse".The amount of trouble that Egan managed to manouvre his mount into took my breath away and apart from the people who bet the horse it was frankly laughable.<br>Having said that I will hold my hands up and declare a longstanding distrust of the jockey !!

    Resplendant Alpha’s run today was an insult to racing.  The jockey had a firm hold of his head and he showed no urgency at all.  The horse just want to run……
