Facts:
This was a protest by Mr Wallis against horse number 4, ALWAYS TREASURE, which was placed 4th by the Judge on the ground that the horse breached the provisions of r 870(3) and the breaking horse regulations, in that ALWAYS TREASURE broke in excess of 150 metres in the early stages.

Judges placings were:
1st 1 SALUTE THE MONARCH
2nd 6 ROYAL SQUEEZE
3rd 8 PRISCILLA P
4th 4 ALWAYS TREASURE
5th 2 SHUTTERUP
Mr Wallis had Mr Ydgren, stipendiary steward, demonstrate on the videos that ALWAYS TREASURE broke shortly after the start and continued in a gallop for approximately 165 metres before regaining its trotting gait.
Mr Middleton the trainer/driver of ALWAYS TREASURE, indicated that he represented the connections and, after viewing the videos, he accepted that the distance was in excess of 150 metres.
Reasons for Decision:
The breaking horse regulations provide that a horse that gallops in excess of 150 metres at the start or during the running of a race is deemed to be in breach of r 870(3) in that it has failed to promptly regain its proper gait.
We have viewed the incident on the videos and we are satisfied that ALWAYS TREASURE broke for a distance in excess of 160 metres shortly after the start.
