NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE, No. 58

17 MAY 2013

(10) Subject to sub-Rule (12)(a), application may be made to the Review Panel for a review of the Graded Stakes New Zealand Pattern Committee List by any one or more of the following bodies:

(a) NZTR;
(b) a Club;
(c) the New Zealand Thoroughbred Breeders’ Association;
(d) any branch of the New Zealand Thoroughbred Breeders’ Association;
(e) the Bloodstock Agents’ Federation (NZ) Inc,

provided that request for a review is lodged in writing with NZTR within 28 days of the date of the first publication of the Graded Stakes New Zealand Pattern Committee List.

(11) In considering any such application for review, the Review Panel shall have regard to the following:

(a) whether the Graded Stakes New Zealand Pattern Committee has adequately carried out its functions as defined in sub-Rule (7);
(b) whether adequate notice has been given to the Club concerned in terms of sub-Rule (8)(a) prior to the downgrading or delisting of any particular Race or Races;
(c) whether the changes relied upon by the Graded Stakes New Zealand Pattern Committee for downgrading or delisting a Race pursuant to Rule (8)(c) justify such actions;
(d) whether new information or changed circumstances have arisen since the Graded Stakes New Zealand Pattern Committee made its determination in respect of any particular Race or Races.

(12) The Review Panel may:

(a) confirm the List produced by the Graded Stakes New Zealand Pattern Committee, in which event the decision of the Review Panel shall be final; or
(b) set aside the List and prescribe the terms for referring it back to the Graded Stakes New Zealand Pattern Committee for re-consideration.

(13) A Club shall only advertise a Race to be run at its Race Meeting in a particular Racing Year as being a Group Race or a Listed Race if that Race appears on the list published by NZTR in accordance with sub-Rule (7)(b) above for that Racing Year.

  1. Rule 920(3)(c) – Decisions of the Judicial Committee

NZTR has removed ‘or’ in Rule 920(3)(c). This corrects a grammatical error. The inclusion of ‘all or any’ in the opening sentence of Rule 920 negates the need for ‘or’ in the applicable points (a) to (d) below.

DECISIONS OF THE JUDICIAL COMMITTEE

920 (3) The Judicial Committee may order that all or any of the costs and expenses of:

(a) any party to the hearing;
(b) any other person granted permission to be heard at the hearing by direction of the Judicial Committee;
(c) NZTR and/or any employee or officer thereof; or
(d) the Judicial Control Authority and the Judicial Committee;

be paid by such person or body as it thinks fit. Such amount if unpaid for 28 days shall be deemed Arrears and may be placed on the Arrears List. The Judicial Committee may in addition to or substitution of any other order or penalty, order that a Rider’s riding fee or any part thereof be paid to the Rider or such other person as it thinks fit or be repaid to the Owner or lessee (as the case may be).
