Who would be on this list?
Paul Roy is an obvious candidate.
Paul Dixon too?
Away from the cutting edge of racing politics you’d perhaps include Sheikh Mohammed.
Maybe Bruce Millington would actually be at or near the top of the list.
Whoever oiled the wheels for the Champion Stakes switch to Ascot must yield some hefty dollops of clout (although, sadly, in the aftermath of that debacle, Jim McGrath seems to have slipped down the list).
Who do you think are racing’s most powerful figures?
Let’s get one thing straight – Ralph Topping comes in way ahead of Paul Roy or Paul Dixon.
The Council of Fourteen would fill the top fourteen slots.
THEY decide where the 14 runner handicaps will be run, with fourteen pound weight bands, for fourteen hundred pounds in prize money in front of fourteen men and a dog.
Some say their members are listed here:

Spots 15 through 28 are filled by the Racecourse Council of Fourteen. Some say their members are found here:

Spots 29 through 42 are filled by the seven pairs of individuals working one-day weeks in the racetech van.
The Sleepy Hollow Mafia fill spots 43 to 100.
The Fourteen Pauls are nowhere, absolutely nowhere.

Hehehe
but where does Findlay fit in?
You’re certainly making a bold bud for Poster of the Year outright this year Glenn. Fantastic stuff once again.
