    Is it as close to fixing as you can get? Why can't the jockey's wear the owners silks that they would wear at a normal meeting?

    It's a turn-off for me. Fortunately we also have Haydock and Newmarket!

    I don’t mind it as a one-off event.

    Not sure why you think it’s fixed. Team tactics don’t really come into it - at least not in the way Formula 1 operates. And at these high profile, high grade meetings you won’t see any rigged races or deliberate underperforming.
