Hello, Elle!
It is trainers who enter and declare horses to run, so Willie should be fined.
The owner, Rich Ricci, is extremely wealthy, so he may reimburse Willie.
I agree with the fine.
There would be those who went to Sandown especially to see Mag. She is a potential "great" horse.
I'll see BGT tomorrow.
I have saw enough TV for one day and still have my paper to read!

Hi, Rusty!
My friend has finally surfaced!
She got back from Australia about midnight, and fell into bed!
She has only just awakened and phoned me!
How many hours sleep does that make? about nineteen hours? Goodness me!
I shall see her tomorrow.
Yes, I agree with you about the fine - well deserved as race-goers will be disappointed.
But it feels right that the owners should reimburse Willie if it was at their instigation that VVM was withdrawn.
I am spending the evening reading.......

Good morning, Rusty!
I am watching the London Marathon!
(on the television though, not en route!)
The Elite women have just passed the Cutty Sark! whereas the wheelchair athletes have gone across Tower Bridge!
If you are watching, you will know that the rain has now stopped and the temperature is about 7C - so ideal marathon conditions!
The dog will have to wait for her walk!

Good morning, Elle!
Fine day with me but not warm!
I am watching marathon, too!
Cheering for Charlotte Purdue!
She is going along nicely.
Just watched BGT and found it disappointing this week.
I thought the acts were very so-so, but everyone else seemed to like them!

Hello, Malone.
That's much better!
Maybe they pay us heed?
