RACEDAY JUDICIAL COMMITTEE DECISION

--

Information No: 354

--

Meeting: Counties Racing

--

Date: 24 March 2010

--

Venue: Pukekohe Park

--

JCA Panel: Jeff Holloway (Chair) Committee: Brian Tims and Alan Godsalve

--

Rule: 330(3)(c)

--

 

--

Stipendiary Steward Mr J OATHAM laid an Information charging Jockey Mr A Ihaka with failing to make weight for SKIDBY in Race 1.

--

 

--

Mr Ihaka admitted the breach and appeared for the Hearing.

--

 

--

Mr Oatham told the committee that approximately ¾ hour before race time it was discovered that Mr Ihaka would not make the required weight for SKIDBY, being overweight by 1.5 kgs.

--

 

--

Trainer Mr M Faber confirmed that Mr Ihaka had been engaged to ride at the book weight of 65 kgs.

--

 

--

There being no other rider available on course, apart from scratching SKIDBY the only option was for Mr Ihaka to ride which was a less than desirable option.

--

 

--

Mr Ihaka could offer no explanation.

--

 

--

Mr Oatham in submissions on penalty told the committee that in the previous jumping season Mr Ihaka had 3 charges under the same rule.  It was important that Mr Ihaka did not accept rides for weights that he could not achieve.  He sought a fine in the region of $200 to $250.

--

 

--

Mr Ihaka had no submissions in respect to penalty.

--

 

--

The Committee having view of the JCA guidelines and taking into account the guilty plea as well as the three previous breaches of the same rule ordered a fine of $250.
