As much as the welfare of horses obviously come first, we should not jump to conclusions.
This also played out a few years ago with the same owner and Lunga Gila. Turned out the trainer (Gila) was

Seen that we going down memory lane, can you remember Jeffrey Lloyd and the wolf power incident bringing horses down with him in the race. Mr Ed did I offend you in anyway or am I suspended from having my post

Agree with Anthony Delpech.
The link that mr Ed provided earlier in the week takes one to a display of each runner's last 10 runs. In the Al Quoz, Audience is the highest rated runner at 122 and the remaining runners are all clustered between 109 and 115.
Howdeepisyourlove looks to be a worthy favourite, having run superstar Ka Ying Rising to 1.5 lengths twice - his overall record is 6 wins from 27, with most of the other horses having about the same type of record (bar the only 3 yo in the race, West Acre, who has won 4 of 6).
Issi is definitely in with a chance. .
The HWB punters challenge should be popular on the day, Romantic Warrior and Forever Young look hard to beat!

George , George , you should know better than to pose such a question , firstly the NHA know what is best for us all and secondly they do not and will not explain any decision especially to us supporters of horse racing , you just invest in the sport and they will take care of the regulation thereof

I got such a fright for both horse and jockey. At least Wings of Ice got back on her feet, I hope she's not badly injured. My mate Peter Pascoe and Lucky H didn't even see their horse win as they were more concerned for the fallen horse and rider. This is what true lovers of the equine do compared to some of the keyboard warriors who's only concern is for their "lost bets" and main contribution is to criticize true lovers and amabassadors of the

Let's wait and see what full details of the allegations are and why did the owners not address this issue directly with trainer Lorenzo Karriem. Everything must be evidence based. Why did the trainer terminate his trainers license without defending accusations leveled against him. Let's hear from both sides. and until then no more assumptions and
