This fresh batch should bring renewed energy to the club's roster. Michael Eshwer is the senior among the new trainers and has been licensed in the past by BTC and RWITC.

After waging what felt like a saga straight out of a courtroom drama, he managed to get the punishment handed by BTC stayed in the sessions court. The court, taking a stand for "natural justice and fair play" (fancy words for common sense, really), ruled in his favour, leading to a compromise petition that finally handed back his license. So, with the legal wrangling behind him, Padmanabhan will be back in action, ready for action in this weekend’s Mysore Derby Day racing. It's almost poetic—like a phoenix rising... with a saddlebag full of paperwork.

Contrary to the announcement made by Bangalore Turf Club Steward Uday Eswaran, bookmakers are unlikely to operate at Saturday's Bangalore races since the government has not yet approved their licenses.

Most prefer to bet with bookmakers because the odds they offer are much higher than what can typically be found on the tote. This could potentially hurt attendance on the big day.

The Telangana Race Horse Owners Association has reportedly arrived at a settlement with the Hyderabad Race Club. The club has offered to increase the stake money by Rs 1.6 crores and compensate for the loss of four race days. Racing will resume from Monday, November 27.

|
|
November 18, 12:10 PM
The Hyderabad Race Club has rejected the demand by the Telangana Race Owners Association for an increase in stake money stating that the club is likely to incur losses due to the implementation of GST and TDS on winnings on the club-operated tote. The Club has stated that the demand could be considered at a later date if the financial position improves. We have to wait and see whether there is any hope of an early resumption of the winter season which has already been delayed by three weeks.

The impasse continues at Hyderabad, with the opposing parties not coming to the negotiating table. Already more than four days of racing have been lost due to the stand-off between the Telangana Owners Association and the Hyderabad Race Club over increased race days and higher stake money among others. With no thaw in the stands of the respective bodies, it looks highly unlikely that racing would resume anytime soon.

Hyderabad Races scheduled to be held on Sunday, November 12 and on Monday, November 13 have been cancelled due to lack of entries states the official release from the Hyderabad Race Club. The Telangana Racehorse Owners Association is protesting against the reduced number of race days and stake money and has advised trainers not to put in entries. With the HRC authorities taking a rigid stand of not having any negotiations, the stalemate has thus far resulted in the cancellation of three race days.

Without A Fight completes Caulfield-Melbourne Cup double as hot favourite Vauban is well-beaten.
Caulfield Cup winner Without A Fight completed a big spring carnival double when landing the Lexus Melbourne Cup at Flemington.
The six-year-old, trained by Anthony and Sam Freedman, quickened up to lead approaching the final furlong for a ready success by two and a quarter lengths.
Hot favourite Vauban moved well turning into the straight but weakened out of contention to finish 14th, while stablemate Absurde finished seventh having led the field with two furlongs to run.
It was a second consecutive Melbourne Cup victory for jockey Mark Zahra, whose decision to ride Without A Fight over last year's winner Gold Trip was vindicated.
Zahra said on Network Ten: "He relaxed well on the rail and I was confident in his ability as he has a good turn of foot.
"When I came off the rail, he quickened well, and while I hit the front early, I felt there was nothing going to come from behind me.
"I can't believe I've won the race again but winning one helps you a lot. You have so much more confidence after getting the first one under your belt.
"If I stuffed it up, I still had a Melbourne Cup win on my CV and you go out there with more belief, especially when riding a good horse."
The Sheikh Mohammed Obaid-owned Without A Fight was formerly trained by Simon and Ed Crisford, winning seven races in Britain including the Grand Cup and Silver Cup at York last year before finishing 13th in the Melbourne Cup on soft ground.
He became the 12th horse to complete the Caulfield Cup-Melbourne Cup double and the first since Ethereal in 2001.
Sam Freedman said: "It's very special to win this race and the team at home have done an amazing job.
"Without A Fight has been thriving and Mark, who has built a great rapport with him, gave him a freak of a ride.
"He's an extraordinary horse and the ground went against him last year but we've been able to bring him back with conditions to suit this time."
Hollie Doyle's mount Future History raced prominently and was in with a shout on the turn in before eventually finishing in mid division.
Soulcombe, formerly trained by William Haggas, overcame a tardy start to finish well for second, with 150-1 shot and Chris Waller-trained stablemate Sheraz and Ashrun completing the first four places.
Waller said: "Soulcombe was good enough to win the race but full credit to the winner. He has weight-for-age form and he was superior.
"Missing the start isn’t ideal. He’s a great horse, he’s a genuine two-miler and he’ll get his chance again. He's still a little bit quirky but once we get him worked out he’ll be better.

The system has been introduced in Mysore Race Club and the fields there are healthy. It is a loss for the club to conduct six races per race day. The Chairman has requested the cooperation of racehorse owners and trainers in this regard and cooperation with the club in the best interests of the sport. In the light of the horses stationed being less than 700, the club has felt that the introduction of the clause all horses entered must run as most desirable. The protest by trainers and racehorse owners had resulted in the cancellation of the opening day's races of the Hyderabad Winter Season scheduled for Monday, November 7.

BHA statement regarding Martin Dwyer
Following the decision of the Disciplinary Panel not to reciprocate the 56 day suspension imposed upon Martin Dwyer by the Royal Western India Turf Club (RWITC), Jamie Stier, Director of Raceday Operations and Regulation for the BHA, said:
“As signatories to the International Agreement the BHA's starting point is to recognise the principle of reciprocation of penalties incurred by British riders abroad. However, this is in the expectation that the individual is afforded the tenets of natural justice.
"In this particular case, it was our view that these basic principles were not upheld by the RWITC and this was reflected in the BHA's presentation to the Disciplinary Panel.
“Consequently, the BHA supports the decision of the Disciplinary Panel not to reciprocate the suspension imposed by the RWITC on Martin Dwyer.
"It was the BHA's view that there were a number of areas during the process which fell short of being demonstrably fair and were not in accordance with the principles of natural justice. One such example being the decision of the RWITC stewards to make a finding that Ice Age had not been run on her merits and declare her a non-runner, before conducting an enquiry and hearing from Martin Dwyer.
“We will be sharing with the RWITC the concerns the BHA set out to the Disciplinary Panel.”
