  • September 2015
    Marten Julian’s NEWSLETTER SEPTEMBER 2015 Hi there, There are a few days in the autumn racing programme which are essential viewing, and St Leger and Arc trials weekend must rank top of the list. Apart from the final Classic of the season there is also an informative support card at Doncaster, the Irish Champion Stakes and then three important Arc trials on Sunday. It’s hard to know where to start, but having taken time to watch reruns of the St Leger I feel that in the context of recent times the stewards’ decision to disqualify Simple Verse was incorrect. Years ago, or currently in the States and perhaps France, there would be no question that the winner would have been thrown out, but in this country it’s different and to my eyes Bondi Beach had every chance of taking the lead yet at no stage did he strike the front. By contrast the filly had to force her way through a narrow gap and gamely held on to the line, despite not appearing to be as hard ridden as the one-paced runner-up. Hearing the jockeys put forward their arguments in the stewards’ room afterwards Andrea Atzeni could and should have made a stronger case in his defence. From what I could hear his argument lacked conviction and he was unwise to conclude with the words that “it was 50/50”. It would be inappropriate to prejudge the result of the appeal, but in my view there is a good chance that the decision will be reversed.
