I'm a bit surprised the rules allowed him to scratch his horses. I thought after entering a horse, one needed a better reason than not getting some free grub to scratch....

they let you scratch horses for any damn reason now days. It surprises me they even have to give a reason anymore. When I trained there was a price to pay for scratching a horse.
It was at Pakenham actually, on the radio today he claimed the racetrack CEO told him to scratch his horses and go home after he complained about the catering so that is what he did.
