--Judges placings were 9, 1, 7, 13, 10, 5. The margins were a L, ½ a neck.
--Mr McIntyre called the driver of BAD AVEROSS, Mr Nathan Williamson. He stated that as he went to go down into the passing lane the winner (BAD MAN RISING) rolled down and he had to check his horse off as there was not a sufficient gap for him. He said his horse had “run on good” into 3rd placing once the opportunity arose. When questioned by the stipendiary steward, he said his horse was running out but this was because it was being forced down by BAD MAN RISING. He acknowledged he had kept encouraging BAD AVEROSS with the whip. Mr Faulks, the trainer of BAD AVEROSS, said the horse needed to be kept going and that between the 180 to 140 metre mark, in his opinion, Mr Williamson had had to stop driving. He said he accepted BAD AVEROSS would never have beaten the winner but he thought it might have run second. Mr Petit, owner of BAD AVEROSS, asked us to note that at one point in the home straight the head on video suggested that the inner wheel of BAD MAN RISING was inside the line being taken by the outer wheel of BAD AVEROSS and, in his opinion, the wheels would have touched had BAD AVEROSS progressed further.
--Mr Kyle, driver of BAD MAN RISING, pointed out on the video that BAD AVEROSS was hanging. He said if the horse had run straight it would have had every chance. He said there was always room in the passing lane for the trailing horse and that BAD MAN RISING had had its chance.
--Before considering exercising its discretion to uphold the protest this Committee has to be satisfied that the lead horse, BAD MAN RISING, has moved into the passing lane and that the chances or the progress of BAD AVEROSS have been affected as a consequence.
--After listening to the oral evidence and viewing the head on video, we are satisfied that BAD MAN RISING drifted ever so slightly into the passing lane. This movement was just after the horses straightened for the run home, but we are satisfied that there was always a clear gap into which BAD AVEROSS could have progressed. However, that horse was hanging; it can clearly be seen to be racing with its head to the side. There was a short distance from the inner wheel of the cart of BAD AVEROSS to the marker pegs, but BAD AVEROSS was running out and was thus not able to take full advantage of that gap. We do not accept that BAD AVEROSS was “forced down” as Mr Williamson has alleged. Indeed we believe the horse, at least initially, was reluctant to go down into the passing lane. We are satisfied that BAD AVEROSS was able to be driven out with the whip. In these circumstances we do not believe that BAD MAN RISING has interfered with the chances or the progress of BAD AVEROSS and accordingly the protest is dismissed.
