 Stewards Enquiry My horse has just lost its unbeaten record. Also, it meant I missed out on a Longchamp Group 1 treble.  If this was real life he would have got a punch.

Re: Stewards Enquiry It's the laid-back, shrugging shoulders manner of it that really gets to me.

Re: Stewards Enquiry The other time I consider firing them is when they give really bad rides- Frankie once lost me the july cup by leading on a holdup horse, but I never do because I always use the best available, so not using them leaves me at a disadvantage. For example a that point of the season and maybe even later Buick had a 30% strike rate!

Usually this happens when the jockey (Silvester De Souza) pulls my horse to the back of the pack and it runs on too late, really annoys me but unfortunately better jockeys don't ever become available :/
