Sure, the HKJC might have put a bit of pressure on them, but that is as far as they can legally go.
If the owners had took them to court about this, the HKJC and Cruz wouldn't have had a leg to stand on.
Sorry, but it's a no brainer.

You know, I've tried to back off of this thread and only updated cause he had a swim and i was happy..... a little bit of normalcy for the old guy, you know? I love this horse. Breaks my heart knowing he's in that polluted stall instead of having a break somewhere nice like a lot of them get to do.....
Bullish Luck, for God sake. National treasure and he doesn't get a proper break. Sad.
This idiocy though..... you can't have it both ways.
You constantly make the HKJC out to be a bunch of villains, you and your "They're Mafia" posts.
WHICH IS IT?
You're saying what here, over and over.... they're suddenly not mafia but the good guys in all of this?
You seriously believe they did not put pressure on those people, on the De Silva's?
I NEVER pretend to know anything i don't.
You pm'd me once, saying something about studying HK racing in college? Tell me about your class... tell us all.
I'll tell you one thing though..... the friends I've made over there who answer questions and tell me stories, who know that for some weird reason this has become my passion, these beautiful old geldings who are snubbed in much of the international racing community?
They've told me differently and sorry but i will take their word over anybodys. period.
