An information filed by Stipendiary Steward Mr B Van Kan against Mr D Balle, trainer of COOL STORY, alleging a breach of Rule 864 (2) (d) in that the removable ear hood of COOL STORY malfunctioned when activated in the run home. 

--

Mr Balle admitted the breach and did not wish to be present at the hearing.  He had endorsed the information “a small metal clip broke”.

--

Mr Van said the facts were as alleged in the information and he accepted the explanation of Mr Balle.  Mr Van Kan said the recommended starting point was a fine of $250.00 but because of the very minor nature of the breach he recommended a fine of $100.00.  The facts as presented indicated a breach of Rule 864 (2) (b) in that the gear was not of good quality.  The recommended penalty starting point for a breach of that rule is $175.00.  In fixing penalty I take into account the following :

--

1.            The guilty plea.

--

2.            The minor nature of the breach.

--

3.            This was probably a breach of Rule 864 (2) (b).

--

4.            No relevant breaches of the Rules are recorded against Mr Balle.

--

 

--

Balancing those matters I impose a fine of $100.00
