Can't recall that happening at any trots meeting for a long time.

Very strong headwind in the back straight was probably the main contributor.

A mixed meeting with $1.30 favourites taking no part and some very ordinary drives by a few concession drivers.

I headed the Perths Drivers Premiership 3 times and was twice runner up.
In 1968 I was the nations leading driver with 99 winners narrowly missing being the first Australian driver to drive 100 winners in a season.
During 1969 at one meeting I had 5 drives on the 7 event programme at Gloucester Park and all 5 saluted. That made me the first West Australian and only second Australian to drive 5 winners at a metropolitan meeting. Eventually in 1979 I became the first West Australian based driver to drive 100 winners in a season.
People have said that their was none better than me at cajoling, lifting or kidding to a horse in a close finish. Fortunately I was rarely off the mark as bookmakers and legions of punters of the time will attest to.

Crash's mothers second litter has just started racing with one sister having now had 3 starts for 3 wins in NSW and his other sister how had little luck first start at Mandurah won her next start last week by 3 lengths and was backed off the map just before the boxes opened $7 into $2.90.

The third litter are just starting pre training and should be on the track in a couple of months.

My My Machine has now produced a 100% runners to winners ratio and the Collision litter are by far the best bred with Collision still standing as the number one sire in Australia.

I left school at 13. It took me a long time to be successful and I didn't make a living until my late 20s. My success grew as both trainer and driver but I was always being compared to my father and uncles.
When I won my first premiership the newspaper wrote that I 'had finally won a premiership' but I'll 'never be the equal of my uncle'. My uncle won 11 premierships. As time went by I won 16 so I feel satisfied with that.

B. Harper https://www.perthturftalk.com.au/discussion/discussion/21430/rwwa-integrity-assurance-committee-iac-lifting-of-warning-off-mr-l-b-harper Fri, 01 Jul 2016 05:36:24 +0000 TheDiva 21430@/discussion/discussions

In December 2015 the IAC resolved, after considering the length of time Mr L. B. Harper has been excluded from the industry (11 years approx.) that he ought to be given a limited opportunity to demonstrate his limited participation in racing as a member of the public would not be prejudicial to the wider interests of the industry, to remove some of the restrictions that applied to him as a warned off person.

As advised at that time, following a period of not less than 6-months and on the provision that Mr Harper adhered to the terms of the restrictions as described, the matter was to be reviewed and further consideration be given to lifting the warning off in full.

Since that time there have been no adverse matters arising with Mr Harper adhering to the personal assurances given to the IAC at the hearing conducted on 24 November 2015 which preceded the varying of restrictions.

Following review, the IAC has now resolved to remove Mr Harper’s name from the list of persons warned off.

Mr Harper is effectively now a member of the public who does not hold a license with RWWA.

The determination to remove his name from the list of persons warned off does not imply that any future licence applications will be approved with the Stewards and IAC reserving all rights in this regard.

]]> Harness – Stewards Inquiry – Trainer Dennis Dale - DON’T BE TEASIN ME https://www.perthturftalk.com.au/discussion/discussion/21429/harness-stewards-inquiry-trainer-dennis-dale-don-t-be-teasin-me Fri, 01 Jul 2016 05:12:23 +0000 TheDiva 21429@/discussion/discussions

On Tuesday 21 June 2016, RWWA Stewards conducted an inquiry concerning the withdrawal of DON’T BE TEASIN ME in Race 5 at Kellerberrin on 22 May 2016 following a report received from the RWWA Assistant Starter, that a substance had been administered to the nostrils of the horse.

Evidence was taken from the Trainer of DON’T BE TEASIN ME, Mr D Dale, RWWA Steward in Charge at Kellerberrin on the day Mr Chris Courtland, RWWA Assistant Starter, Mr Tim Scala, RWWA Investigator, Mr Paul Criddle who had also conducted an inspection of Mr Dale’s training premises and RWWA Industry Veterinarian, Dr Judith Medd.

After pleading not guilty to a charge issued under Harness Rule of Racing 196A (1) (i) with the particulars of the charge being that at Kellerberrin in the stall area on 22 May 2016, shortly before its engagement in race 5, Mr Dale did administer Home Brand Chest Rub which contains the prohibited substance “camphor” to the nostrils of DON’T BE TEASIN ME for the purpose of affecting its performance in that race, the inquiry was adjourned with the Stewards reserving their decision.

On Friday 24 June 2016, Mr Dale was advised that the Stewards had determined to find him guilty as charged.

After hearing submissions on the matter of penalty at an inquiry on the 29 June 2016, Stewards determined on 1 July 2016 to impose a disqualification of 12-months effective immediately.

In determining penalty Stewards took into account:

 The seriousness of the matter and the need for the penalty to serve as an active deterrent

 That the substance involved was not a prescription medicine but one that was common and readily available. Further that it was used as a topical application as opposed to an oral or other administration.

 Mr Dale’s length of time involved in harness racing and his record

 That the evidence did not establish the reason why Mr Dale had applied the substance to the nostrils of the horse.

 That the horse was withdrawn from the race by the Stewards

 Previous penalties issued under similar rules.

Participants are again reminded of the published notices issued by RWWA that state “The application of Glycerine and/or Vicks Vaporub® by any means is not permitted prior to racing on race day.”

“proud to be in such illustrious company”.

HRV's data base obviously is far from complete.....Fred Kersly Jnr and Trevor Warwick are well over the 2000 mark and possibly others as well. You would think that someone trumpeting the very fine achievement of Andy Gath and who parades under the illustrious tile of "Communications Manager" might want to (a) check his facts or (b) update his data base. I know the information to correct the records is out there but "correct" history is clearly not important.
