Charge:
Alleged breach of Rule 869(2)(a).
Facts:
Following the running of Race 6, The Breeders “Golden Girls” Series (Heat 4) Mobile Trot, an Information was filed by Stipendiary Steward Mr S. W. Wallis against Open Horsewoman Miss M. A. Perriton alleging a breach of Rule 869(2)(a) in that she used her whip excessively.
The charge reads as follows:
“I the above named informant allege that the above named Respondent committed a breach of Rule 869(2)(a) (in that) you used your whip excessively when driving “Pricilla P” out in the run home”.
Rule 869(2)(a) reads as follows:
“(2) No horseman shall during any race:-
(a) use his whip in an unnecessary, excessive or improper manner.”
Miss Perriton had indicated on the Information that this breach of the Rules was admitted, and she also agreed that she understood the charge and the Rule it was brought under. She confirmed this at the hearing.
Submissions for Decision:
Mr Wallis gave evidence and used video coverage to show that Miss Perriton used her whip on about 22 occasions over the concluding stages of the race, and that this was deemed to be excessive.
Miss Perriton did not dispute this evidence.
Reasons for Decision:
As Miss Perriton had admitted the breach it was found to be proved in accordance with Rule 1111(1)(d).
Submissions for Penalty:
In relation to penalty Mr Wallis advised that Miss Perriton drove infrequently and had not previously breached this Rule. Mr Wallis referred to the Penalty Guide and submitted that as Miss Perriton had admitted the breach that a fine of $200-00 should be imposed.
Miss Perriton had no submissions to make with regard to penalty.
Reasons for Penalty:
To Miss Perriton’s credit we took into account that she had admitted this breach and had not previously breached this Rule. The Penalty Guide recommends a starting point of a fine of $250-00 for a breach of this Rule, and taking into the account Miss Perriton’s clear record and that the breach was admitted, we were satisfied that a fine of $200-00 should be imposed in this case.
