RODNEY MASTERS
HANNON JOINS CALL TO DELAY CLASSICS
"Hannon suggests that delaying the early season classics would give trainers more of a chance to prepare their horses and said "I doubt anyone would argue with that."



"Richard Hughes called for the rescheduling of the early Classics in his Racing Post column last Saturday, writing "By running four of the five Classics in their current slots we ask immature  horses (3 year olds) to do something at a time when they should not be doing it. When horses come under hard training for the Guineas  they remain largely in hibernation mode after the winter. It's amazing what just two weeks can do for a horse and what I'd very much like to see is for the Guineas, Derby and Oaks to be pushed back a fortnight."


"Voicing support for the view of his stable jockey and son-in-law. Hannon said: "There's no question the Classics are coming too soon , whether that's linked to climate change I don't know. Another fortnight would give us more of a chance - I doubt anyone would argue that. Another factor is we've lost several trials for the 2000 Guineas, including those at Thirsk and Kempton. As a consequence, the only true trials left are the Greenham and the Craven." Hughie Morrison was in agreement and suggested a more radical remodelling of the racing programme. The trainer said: "Why not have a champions' week, with the Derby and Oaks as either the beginning or end of Royal Ascot week? We must do what's best for our sport."

"Senior trainer Clive Brittain is against a reshuffle and said yesterday: "The system has worked well enough and there's no need for change. As we saw on Saturday, the 2000 Guineas is the perfect trial for the Derby. What's more, there's no excuse for a delay on the grounds of preparation of a horse because trainers have more tools available than previously generations, with a variety of all-weather gallops and an opportunity to take horses to work at places like Lingfield and Kempton."



Brittain's Newmarket colleague Michael Bell feels that tinkering with the dates would throw the international program out of kilter, he said: "In the ideal world the Classics probably could do with being later, but messing around with timing would have massive ramifications."

"John Maxse, the BHA's public relations consultant, said there was no agenda to raise the issue. To come under serious consideration there'd  need to be compelling evidence at the end of a season that the best three-year-olds at a mile and a mile and a half hadn't been able to show their true form in May and June. But, for example in recent years we've seen Classic winners such as SEA THE STARS, FRANKEL and CAMELOT."





J MARGARET CLARKE TURFCALL COMMENT
At present the BHA are clogged up with far too many seriously dangerous issues that they have ignored over decades' to address and rectify, within the British Bloodhorse literacy zone whether they like it or not. 


Seriously dangerous bloodhorse  issues that are manifesting themselves every day on British racecourses, in front of thousands of people,  horses loosing their lives whilst racing lying dead out on the tracks. Horses so badly injured that their racing days will be over. All caused by the BHA's bloodhorse illiteracy regulation government zone.


HORSERACING ON THE WORLD STAGE
BLOODHORSE LITERACY ON THE WORLD STAGE

BHA have bloodhorse literate responsibilities  worldwide in respect of  horseracing especially involving the rights and needs of the horses and their riders, licensed riders who compete around the world.  

 If these regulators continue on in their dangerous bloodhorse illiterate direction ignoring the rights and needs of the bloodhorse literate to include the horses it will not be only the horses left lying dead out on the racetracks.
