b)	Permission was granted for GALE WARNING (*I Taka) to be assisted by a lead pony when proceeding to the start.  
c)	GALE WARNING (*I Taka) proved difficult proceeding to the start and had to be led riderless by a Handler, 	causing a delay. This gelding is suspended indefinitely in terms of Rule 93.2.4 until such time as he proves 	tractable proceeding to the start on a race day.
	Apprentice I Taka was charged with a contravention of Rule 61.3.4 in that he attempted to avoid his duty to ride GALE WARNING to the start by getting into the human ambulance.

	In consideration of mitigation of penalty, the Board took into account that GALE WARNING was a difficult ride.
