Decision: Following Race 5 at the Gore Harness Racing Club meeting on 27 December 2008 an information was lodged by Stipendiary Steward Mr P T Knowles, alleging a breach of Rule 869 (3) (a) in that Miss J B Compain, driver of ROGAN, drove incompetently
Following Race 5 at the Gore Harness Racing Club meeting on 27 December 2008 an information was lodged by Stipendiary Steward Mr P T Knowles, alleging a breach of Rule 869 (3) (a) in that Miss J B Compain, driver of ROGAN, drove incompetently by allowing ROGAN to pace (incorrect gait) for the entirety of the race.
--Mr Knowles presented a letter from the Acting General Manager of Harness Racing NZ authorising the charge to proceed.
--Miss Compain admitted the offence and video evidence confirmed this.
--Under Rule 1111 (1) (d) I find the charge proved.
--Submissions as to penalty were heard. Mr Knowles asked for a suspension of 6 weeks, but stated Miss Compain had a clear record for the past 12 months and indeed she had not even been spoken to locally. He also admitted the stipendiary stewards had missed the offence on the day.
--Mr Cox, on behalf of Miss Compain, said she had been in Southland for about 2 years and had driven very few straight out trotters.
--Miss Compain stated she had not realised her horse was pacing.
--PENALTY
--Taking into account Miss Compain’s clear record, lack of experience and frank admission of the offence, and taking 6 weeks as a starting point, I suspend Miss Compain’s licence for 4 weeks, up to and including Thursday 29 January 2009.
