Facts:
Following the running of Race 7, (Moller Johnson Ltd Mobile Pace 2000m), Information No.A7473 was filed with the Judicial Committee. It alleged that Mrs Teaz, the driver of HEZABLUECHIPBOY, shifted her horse inwards entering the first turn and forced OUR WICKLOW (J Abernethy) down over the track markers.
Rule 869 (7A) (c) provides:
Every horseman who moves inwards shall ensure that the movement does not cause any other horseman, horse or sulky to contact any track marker or protrude inside the marker line. It shall be a defence to a breach of this sub-rule if the horseman establishes that the breach was attributable to the behaviour of his own horse or any other horse or horseman in the race.
The Rule was read and in response to the Chair Mrs Teaz said that she understood the Rule, the charge and confirmed that she admitted the breach.
Mr Muirhead showed the films and said that Mrs Teaz had shifted into a position behind the leading horse ARIZONA EYRE when not clear of OUR WICKLOW forcing that runner down over the marker pegs.
Mrs Teaz and Mr Ferguson concurred with Mr Muirhead’s interpretation of the incident.
Submissions for Penalty:
Mr Muirhead said that Mrs Teaz has a good record, drives infrequently and recommended that a term of suspension be imposed.
Mrs Teaz in response said that a term of suspension would be a preferable penalty.
Reasons for Penalty:
In determining penalty the committee took into account the following matters:
1) The penalty guideline
2) Admission of the breach
3) Good record
4) Submission by R.I.U and Mrs Teaz
5) The relatively severe interference that occurred
