Meet Chair:

Meet Committee Member 1:
AGodsalve
Race Date:
2015/12/18
Race Number:
R1
Decision:
The breach is admitted and therefore the charge is upheld.
Penalty:
We impose a fine of $200.00 on Mr McKendry.
Facts:
Following the running of the CULLEN BREEDING MOBILE TROT an Information was lodged by Stipendiary Steward, Mr S Mulcay against Open Horseman, Mr MW McKendry alleging that Mr McKendry (driving SIR RICHIE) shifted ground outwards passing the 1600 metres mark forcing PEPE BROMAC wider on the track.
Mr McKendry advised the Committee that he admitted the breach and he did not wish to be present at the hearing.
Co-Chief Stipendiary Steward, Mr N McIntyre demonstrated the incident by use of the race films and showed that at about the 1600 metres mark Mr Butcher was 2 wide and Mr McKendry moved out and in doing so pushed Mr Butcher's horse 3 wide.
Submissions for Penalty:
Mr Mulcay referred to the JCA Guidelines which provide for a suspension of Licence for 5 drives or a $250.00 fine.
He said that Mr McKendry had a clear record under this Rule and he should be given credit for that . He also said that Mr McKendry should also be given credit for his admission of the breach.
He submitted that a fine of $200.00 was appropriate.
Reasons for Penalty:
The films show the incident very clearly and show a clear breach of the " pushout rule" Mr McKendry has admitted the breach but on the basis of the film evidence he had to. We have given him credit for his good record under this rule and we have noted that he is a busy and experienced driver.
Taking all factors into account we believe that a fine of $200.00 is appropriate.
