ID: JCA14388
Meet Title:
Auckland TC - 16 December 2011
Meet Chair:
BScott
Meet Committee Member 1:
JHolloway
Race Date:
2011/12/16
Race Number:
R 8
Decision:
The charge, having been admitted, is accordingly proved.
Penalty:
The Committee imposes a fine of $300 on the Purdon/Payne Training Partnership.
Charge:
Breach of Rule 865(2) - Gear Notification.
Facts:
An Information was lodged by Stipendiary Steward, Mr B J Van Kan, against Licensed Trainers, Messrs M Purdon and G Payne, alleging that they presented O BABY without the notified sliding blinds.
Mr Purdon advised this Committee that he did admit the breach and he was present at the Hearing.
Mr McIntyre represented the Stewards at the Hearing, and he said that although the Purdon/ Payne Training Partnership had been in breach of this Rule two weeks ago, that by the calculation of time, two previous offences under the Rule were not taken into account, but that there were still five breaches in the past twelve months.
Mr Purdon, for his part, said that Ms Rasmussen, as the Driver of O BABY, had said at the previous start, that she would like to race the horse without sliding blinds.
He said that his Training Partnership races a lot of horses and that it had two in a prior race and three in this particular race. He said that the horses had come in on two floats and it was difficult to keep track of all the gear. He also said that he had gone out to the race with his horse before O BABY was presented into the Assembly Area.
Submissions for Penalty:
Mr McIntyre pointed to previous fines imposed on the Purdon/ Payne Training Partnership and said that he would leave the quantum of fine up to the Committee.
Mr Purdon, for his part, said that the level of fines for this type of offence were excessive.
Reasons for Penalty:
The Committee can only look at the Purdon/Payne record and look at the fact that the Partnership committed a breach of this Rule only two weeks ago.
The Committee takes note of all the submissions made by Mr Purdon, but has also pointed out to Mr Purdon, that there are other stables who have multiple runners and those stables seem to be able to deal with Gear Notifications.
A fine of $300 was imposed upon Purdon/Payne Training Partnership two weeks ago and the Committee does not believe that it would be appropriate for any further fine to be less than that.
The Committee is concerned about the number of breaches of this Rule by the Purdon/Payne Partnership but believes that a fine of $300 is appropriate.
