RACEDAY JUDICIAL COMMITTEE DECISION

--

Informant:  Mr J Oatham

--

Defendant:  N/A

--

Information No:  41427 (request for a ruling)

--

Meeting:  Paeroa Racing Club

--

Date:  21 May 2010

--

Venue:  Paeroa

--

Race:  2

--

Rule No:  648(3)

--

Judicial Committee:  Mr R Seabrook, Chairman – B Tims, Committee Member 

--

 

--

FACTS:

--

Following race 2 an Information was filed pursuant to Rule 648 (3) requesting a ruling in that H Kasim, rider of FLETCHER BAYBE, weighed in more than .5 kg light of his weigh out weight.

--

 

--

SUBMISSION(s):

--

Mr Oatham explained to the Committee that, after the winner of Race 2, FLETCHER BAYBE weighed in, his Jockey H Kasim was found to be .6 kg under his weighed out weight of 51.5 kg. This weight took into account his apprentice claim of 3 kg.  These weights and the resulting error were confirmed by the Clerk of the Course Mr C Neale.

--

 

--

Mr Faber, the trainer of FLETCHER BAYBE, said that after the weigh in he found he had omitted to include a towel which he had weighed out with.

--

 

--

Mr Oatham in summing up said the rule was clear that .6 kg was in excess of the allowable discretion of -5 kg and the Committee had no option but declare the horse be disqualified.

--

 

--

DECISION:

--

The Committee considered the evidence as presented and is clearly satisfied the weigh in procedure and resultant .6 kg discrepancy were correct.  Because the rule only allows .5 kg as a discrepancy the Committee has no option but to order the horse FLETCHER BAYBE to be disqualified.
