What a farce in the last at Wolves tonight

[Wilts]

Starter waves the flag after one horse allegedly opened a stall too early, but Sky are showing the replay and it’s inconclusive.
Most horses didnt stop properly, most eventually crossed the line, so race void.
The flag comes down, and he’s waving frantically.
Farce – good old British horse racing – shoot in foot once again

Race rescheduled now, for this eve, but only 3 are allowed to race, as others crossed the winning line

and only 2 raced and the winner was mine big rule 4 though.

I just saw this race on Twitter.

Did the jockeys not know the rules as it appeared all bar two could have pulled their horses up before crossing the finish line?

Or did they decide that their mounts couldn’t take part in the rerun having completed most of a circuit?
