We knew this was probably coming when the rules changed. At least this being such an arse decision on the biggest stage, it might force them to revisit.Euler wrote: ↑Sat Jun 06, 2026 4:58 pmIt does seem to fit the guidance. Have a look at the highlighted section: -

Lord Melbourne burst through the stalls in the Epsom 17:20.
Looking forward to this being declared a non-runner...

Colours confusion during the final furlong at Punchestown 17:30.

Derby was a completely avoidable fuck up that could have been avoided with simple operations planning with no expense to any one involved:
1) All horses Loaded and Ready? Handlers put both hands up and Senior Stall Handler in yellow hi-viz jacket puts 1 hand up, good to go
2) All jockeys ready to go? Jockeys ready to go or shout NO, otherwise Senior Jockey Handler in orange hi-viz puts 1 hand up, good to go
3) Clerk of the course sees yellow hi-viz, orange hi-viz, and gives green flag for the official starter to start the race.
4) Race good to go, official starter starts race
Wouldn't cost anything to the owners/trainers/jockeys/punters in flat or AW racing, everyone involved is on-site anyway. It's just a straight forward sequence of events to the start of a race. Yellow/Orange/Green/Go Go Go
Wouldn't work in NH racing though, they can dance around and be facing the moon and the flag drops, run like fuck lads! farmers racing
