Oliver's fate decided Tuesday
Damien Oliver will learn his fate tomorrow when he fronts the stewards over betting offences.
The stewards are also expected to explain why Oliver was allowed to ride during the Spring Carnival where he rode three Group 1 winners.
Oliver can expect a disqualification of at least a year if recent precendent cases are followed.

Most punters would kill for Ollie's self control, never has a bet, boom drops 10 large on one, wins, then puts cue back in the rack. Modern day marvel. Well put mate

The apology is never for the deed.. they are only sorry for being caught.

Like Hinch�s quote : or we are meant to believe, it was the first time Ollie had ever bet on another horse. Yeah right. Hinch�s Law: Shoplifters never get caught the first time. :))
