Following the running of the Crombie Lockwood Trot an Information was lodged against the 4th placing of KOWHAI MONARCH on the grounds of breaking soon after the start and galloping in excess of 150 metres and therefore it was in breach of the Breaking Horse Regulations. The Informants were Stipendiary Stewards Mr JM Muirhead and Ms PJ Kinsey.
Mr Z Butcher the Driver of KOWHAI MONARCH on behalf of the Trainer Mr M Jones endorsed the Information with the words " I do not contest the Protest ".
Rule 870(3) provides "any horse which breaks from its gait shall promptly regain its proper gait".
The Breaking Horse Regulations provide: "that any horse which breaks from its gait and continues in a break in excess of 150 metres or greater shall be deemed to be in breach of Rule 870(3)."
Ms Kinsey demonstrated the incident by use of the Race films and showed where KOWHAI MONARCH broke soon after the start and continued in a break for about 250 metres.
Submissions for Decision:
Ms Kinsey submitted that because KOWHAI MONARCH galloped in excess of 150 metres it was in breach of the rule and should be disqualified from the race.
Reasons for Decision:
The Protest is not contested.
