There is no shortage of talking points this week. Saturday alone gave us plenty of food for thought and the merits or otherwise of the decisions made in the stewards’ rooms in Doncaster and Leopardstown will no doubt rumble on for a while.

The fact that an appeal is being made by the Simple Verse team probably indicates that the St Leger decision could have gone either way. I have listened to many interpretations and each offers a different nuance. No one likes to win or lose a race in these circumstances.
