DECISION AND REASONS:

Following the running of Race 5, Mortlock McCormack Law Free-For-All Trot, an information instigating a protest was filed by Chief Stipendiary Steward, Mr N R Escott, against IDID IT MYWAY (C J De Filippi), placed 5th by the judge, on the grounds that it “broke in excess of 50 metres inside the final 200 metres”.

--

 

--

Mr N G McIntyre, Stipendiary Steward, showed a video replay of the final 200 metres of the Race. He pointed out IDID IT MYWAY break from its gait and continue in a gallop to the finishing line. Mr McIntyre pointed out the marker on the inside of the track marking the point 50 metres from the finishing line and it was clear that IDID IT MYWAY broke from its gait prior to passing that marker.

--

The Committee was satisfied that IDID IT MYWAY had broken from its gait within the final 200 metres of the Race and had failed to promptly regain its proper gait in terms of the Breaking Horses Regulation in that it had continued in a break for a distance of 50 metres or greater.
