RACE NO: 10  INFORMATION NO: 68466  RULE NO:  869(3)(b)

--

This is an information filed by Stipendiary Steward Mr J. Muirhead against Mr G.A. Payne driver of SESHNY BROMAC alleging a breach of the above rule in that he drove his horse carelessly causing interference to CAPS N ART driven by Mr S. Lawson with approximately 600m to run, when improving his horse outwards abruptly. 

--

Mr Payne admitted the breach and did not wish to be present at the hearing. 

--

Mr Muirhead showed the video film of the incident.  SESHNY BROMAC was racing three wide at the rear of the field and CAPS N ART was on its outside.  Mr Payne moved his horse out sharply, made contact with CAPS N ART causing that horse to break.

--

Penalty:

--

Mr Muirhead said Mr Payne had indicated that he preferred a suspension to a fine.  Mr Muirhead said Mr Payne had only had four drives this season and a total of six drives for the whole of last season.  Mr Muirhead suggested a suspension of 3 – 4 weeks.  He said Mr Payne had been fined $250.00 for a breach of Rule 869(4) on the 11th of December 2009. 

--

In fixing penalty the committee takes into account the guilty plea, the submissions of Mr Muirhead, the preference of Mr Payne for a suspension, the recent breach of Rule 869(4), this was a race on a premier race day, the offending was mid-range on the scale of seriousness and the infrequency of Mr Payne’s driving.  Balancing all of those matters, the committee imposes a fine of $500.00, in particular noting that a suspension would be somewhat meaningless in view of the infrequency with which Mr Payne drives.
