Mr Scaife admitted the horse was presented in the birdcage without the correct gear. He said he arrived late on the course and rectified the situation prior to the horse racing.

Submissions for Penalty:

Mr Muirhead submitted this was Mr Scaife's 4th breach in the last year and recommended a $100 fine.

Mr Scaife made no submissions on penalty.

The committee carefully considered all the evidence and submissions presented. The mitigating fact was Mr Scaife's admission of the breach. The aggravating fact, this is his 4th breach in the last 12 months. We referred to Mr Scaife's previous penalties under this rule and believe an appropriate penalty is a $125 fine.
