Disappointing

 

Two important announcments regarding Victorian horses embarking on international campaigns were made last week but don’t go looking on the official Racing Victoria website for any details.

Why not, you ask? Because these horses that are going to compete in England and in Japan are jumpers.

Further, Pentiffic, part-owned by RVL deputy chairman Peter Sinn, won on Sunday in his important build-up to the richest jumps race in the world but again no mention of it on the RVL website.

If the RVL Board needed any further evidence of how lowly jumps racing is held by some administrators then here it is. If these were flat horses going off to represent Australia it would be a different story.
