| Two jockeys
were heavily fined were ranging offences at the provinicial Victoria meeting at Wodonga on
Saturday. Cameron Quilty was fined $500 after
stewards ruled that he had not ridden out a mount right the line, in the view of officials
costing the horse a better placing.
Quilty was charged after his ride aboard the third
placegetter Rimba Soledad in the Southern Asphalters Class 2 Handicap over 1100 metres.
Stewards noted in their report that they felt Quilty should
have finished second in the race and not third.
Bernadette Payne faced the wrath of stewards in the
following race for a weight offence.
She was handed a $200 penalty after weighing in one
kilogram overweight after riding Coldark in the Wodonga Quarries Class 2 Handicap over
1600 metres. |
