Race 4

Decision:

Following the running of Race 4, the Avon City Ford Rangiora Maiden, Stipendiary Steward Mr S. C. Ching laid an information against Licensed Jockey Miss J. Cameron alleging a breach of Rule 858(1)(a) in that Miss Cameron failed to weigh in after riding “Portabello Rose” in that race.



Decision and Reasons:

--

 

--

Following the running of Race 4, the Avon City Ford Rangiora Maiden, Stipendiary Steward Mr S. C. Ching laid an information against Licensed Jockey Miss J. Cameron alleging a breach of Rule 858(1)(a) in that Miss Cameron failed to weigh in after riding “Portabello Rose” in that race.

--

 

--

Miss Cameron had indicated on the Information that she admitted this breach of the Rules and she confirmed this at the hearing.

--

 

--

Mr Ching gave evidence that after the running of the race it was noticed that Miss Cameron had not weighed in as required, and she was spoken to about the matter.  Miss Cameron said that she had recently returned from Australia where she had been riding for the last 6 months, and where only placed riders had to weigh in. This was her first day back riding in New Zealand and weighing in had slipped her mind.

--

 

--

Penalty:

--

 

--

In relation to penalty Mr Ching advised that Miss Cameron had a previous conviction under this Rule at Kumara on 12 January 2008 when she had been fined $150-00.  Mr Ching recommended a fine of between $150-00 and $200-00.  Miss Cameron had no submissions to make relating to penalty.

--

 

--

In considering an appropriate penalty we took into account that Miss Cameron had admitted the breach, and that no harm had been done by her failure to weigh in as her horse was unplaced.  This was however her second conviction in the last 12 months.  We determined that a fine of $175-00 was appropriate and Miss Cameron was fined this amount.
