IHRB Island Hunt (F) Point to Point Meeting Sunday 20th October 2024
The Acting Stewards interviewed Mr B. Finn, rider of Sheer Raz, placed second, concerning his use of the whip in the latter stages of the 4yo Maiden. Evidence was heard from the rider concerned.
Having viewed a recording of the race and considered the evidence, the Acting Stewards were of the opinion that the rider was in breach of Regulation 58. 3.(i) in that he had used the whip without allowing his mount at least three strides to respond.
Having taken his previous record into consideration, the Acting Stewards suspended Mr B. Finn for one Point to Point raceday.
