Meet Committee Member 1:
GClapp
Race Date:
2018/09/22
Race Number:
R2
Decision:
As Mr Bakar had admitted the breach, the charge was found proved.
Penalty:
Mr Bakar’s Class B Jockeys licence is suspended from the conclusion of racing 26 September up to and including 5 October 2018.
Facts:
Following the running of Race 2, the NZ Cup Meeting Tickets On Sale Now Maiden, an Information was filed by Stipendiary Steward, Mr M Davidson, against Class B Rider, Mr N Bakar alleging careless riding in that he permitted his mount, MISS SCANDINAVIA, to shift outwards near the 300m, crowding CELTIC WONDER, ridden by Miss T Jonker, and contacting SEVERINE, ridden by Miss K Williams causing checks to VIVA LA BURGUNDY, ridden by Mr K Kwo and LET HER RIP RILEY, ridden by Miss A Morgan.
“(1) A Rider shall not ride a horse in a manner which the Judicial Committee considers to be:
(d) careless”
Mr Bakar had indicated on the Information that this breach of the Rules was admitted, which he confirmed at the hearing. Mr Bakar also agreed that he understood the charge and the Rule it was brought under. Mr P Richards assisted Mr Bakar at the hearing.
Mr Davidson, with the assistance of Stipendiary Steward, Mr J McLaughlin, gave evidence and used video coverage to show that nearing the 300m, MISS SCANDINAVIA, ridden by Mr Bakar, was racing with CELTIC WONDER, ridden by Miss Jonker, SEVERINE, ridden by Miss Williams, VIVA LA BURGUNDY, ridden by Mr Kwo and LET HER RIP RILEY, ridden by Miss Morgan on his outside. He pointed out Mr Bakar at the 300m, who then shifted out forcing a run and in doing so crowded Miss Jonker. Mr McLaughlin said that Mr Bakar continued on shifting out making contact with Miss Williams who was forced out into the rightful running lines of Mr Kwo and Miss Morgan, who both had to check.
Mr Bakar stated that his mount hung out a little bit once he took the gap. Mr Richards stated that there was ½ a gap available to Mr Bakar and he was going good enough to get through it but has over done it by shifting out 2 horse widths further than what he needed to.
Submissions for Penalty:
Mr Davidson stated that Mr Bakar had a clear record having had only 10 career rides to date with an impressive 6 winning rides. He stated that Mr Bakar had admitted the breach at the earliest possible opportunity and was relatively inexperienced. He stated that this breach was mid-range and with the JCA Penalty Guide for a mid-range breach being a starting point of an 8 National Day suspension, submitted that a 6-8-day suspension be considered as penalty.
Mr Richards stated that consideration be given to Mr Bakar’s inexperience, his good record and his admission of the breach. He said that Mr Bakar wished to defer any suspension until after Matamata on 26 September.
Reasons for Penalty:
The JCA Penalty Guide for a mid-range breach of this rule is an 8 National day suspension. The Committee also assessed this breach as mid-range and therefore adopted an 8 National day starting point. There were no aggravating factors to consider, therefore no uplift in penalty was required. We were however able to afford Mr Bakar a discount for his frank admission of the breach, his good record to date and his relative inexperience. This combined discount we set at 1 day. We therefore determined that a 7 National-day suspension was an appropriate penalty in this case.
Mr Bakar’s request for a deferment until after racing at Matamata on 26 September is granted.
