Race Meeting Stewards’ Report

 

Capalaba Racing Club-Greyhounds

Wednesday, 25th August 2021

 

Track: Good

Weather: Fine

 

Stewards Panel: J Philp (Chair), K Adams, S Barr

 

Officials: S Flynn (Vet), T Fuller (Judge), J Solis (Starter), R Fedrick (Samples), C Houston (Lure)

 

General: Following All-Clear being declared for Race 2, it was identified by the race day Judge, an error in the placings had been made by declaring the placings as 6,1,5,9 when in fact the correct placings were 6,5,1,9. Acting under GAR63(1) which reads; The judge, in consultation with the stewards, may correct a mistake after the All-Clear signal has been announced. Stewards subsequently amended the placings to 6,5,1,9. The matter was subject to a Stewards’ inquiry, it was established that human error caused the incorrect identification of (1) Unlimited Blitz and (5) Lady Swiss in the placings. That the error was discovered when the judge used a different colour/light balance to reduce glare from the mirror image allowing for the runners to be more clearly distinguished and that the use of this technique prior to the All-Clear being given would prevent future incidents.
