Outcome: Proved
Penalty: Jockey Dylan Turner - fined $300
Evidence:
Mr Turner was charged with a breach of Rule 330(3)(c) in that he failed to make the weight of 56 kilograms being the weight his mount “HARD TIMES” has been handicapped to carry – Race 2, the “BC @ BAILEYS REAL ESTATE TARANAKI 2000”. He had to be replaced as Rider by Ms K Hercock.
Decision:
As Mr Turner admitted the breach, it was deemed proved.
Submissions for Penalty:
Mr Oatham advised that Mr Turner had incurred 2 previous breaches of this Rule in recent months, namely on 24 April 2022 (fined $150) and on 6 May 2022 (fined $200).
Mr Turner did not advance any submissions as to penalty.
Reasons for Penalty:
Because a Rider of another horse (handicapped to carry a lighter weight than was HARD TIMES) was unable to attend, Mr Turner in fact obtained the ride on that mount, and earned a riding fee.
Given his recent record, Mr Turner is fined $300.
Conclusion:
Mr Turner is fined $300.
