Jockey stated that his instructions were to settle the gelding early, get him to relax as he had made a noise previously and to do his best from there. Jockey added that the gelding settled well but made a noise at the first bend and this continued throughout the race. He said he tried to quicken the pace from about halfway so it would not turn into a sprint in the closing stages and that the gelding hung right in the home straight but despite this, was ridden to the best of his ability. Jockey concluded by stating that the gelding was leg weary after the winning post and was dismounted and walked back in. He accepted that the gelding took some time to pull up after the race and had continued galloping until after the mile start. When questioned why he did not pull the gelding up during the race despite making such a noise, he stated that he was happy to continue because he had made a noise previously. Trainer confirmed the instructions given and confirmed that the gelding had wind issues. Trainer added that he was disappointed with the ride given and referred to it as "not pretty viewing" but when asked if he felt the rider should have pulled his charge up, he stated that the the rider was correct not to pull the gelding up and referred to him as being "only a low rated gelding". On further questioning when asked if he felt the gelding was prevented from running on his merits, he was satisfied that this had not occurred. The Raceday Stewards also received a report from the vet ,who stated that the gelding was coughing post race, but was otherwise post race normal. Having viewed the recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Raceday Stewards were satisfied that both trainer and rider were in breach of Rule 212A(i) in that both were involved in the running and/or riding of a horse in a race, who deliberately or recklessly causes or permitted a horse to run other than on its merits. Having taken their records in this regard into account, the Raceday Stewards fined C. Byrnes, trainer, E6000. They suspended G.P. Brouder for 21 racedays and ordered that he forfeit his riding fee. Furthermore, the Raceday Stewards suspended the gelding for 90 days in accordance with the provisions of Rule 212 C.(d) and referred the betting pattern of the gelding to a Senior racing Official for further investigation. In arriving at their decision, The Raceday Stewards acknowledged the report from the I.H.R.B. Veterinary Office, that the gelding was coughing post race, but they were satisfied that given the way the gelding finished out the race and appeared to them to run on after passing the winning post that the gelding was not inconvenienced in any way at the time)
