In assessing penalty, the Board considered the number of times (14) Jockey A Arries struck the horse NDAKA, the distance over which and manner in which he used his crop and his record (0) in relation to this Rule. Accordingly, a penalty of a fine of R750 was imposed. e) Apprentice S Hlengwa signed an admission of guilt for a contravention of Rule 58.10.2, read in conjunction with Guideline G, in that whilst riding GUY FOX, he used his crop when this gelding was out of contention for a place in the concluding stages.
