Mr Wallace demonstrated the video films and showed in the concluding stages his horse Sufficient received interference from Mill Duckie when that horse moved out causing a bump to Sufficient’s hindquarters.  He also said Mr Innes lost his balance.

Mr Innes confirmed the evidence of Mr Wallace and said the interference cost him ½ length.

Ms Collett, rider of Mill Duckie, said there was no contact between the two, Mr Innes didn’t stop riding and Sufficient was never going to beat her horse.

--

Mr Collett, Trainer of Mill Duckie said his horse came from behind Sufficient and there was no substantial movement on Mill Duckie’s part.

--

Mr Oatham when asked for his assessment said there was minor contact but was not satisfied Sufficient would have beaten Mill Duckie had interference not occurred.

--

 

--

Mr Wallace in summing up said interference had occurred which in his opinion affected the result.

DECISION

--

The Committee carefully considered all evidence and while conceding Mill Duckie moved out slightly was not satisfied this was enough to affect the outcome of the race.

--

Another factor was that Mr Innes did not stop riding at any stage and there was no contact between the two.

--

 

--

Accordingly the protest is dismissed.
