Health and Safety comment:

Judicial report: Weather: Fine An inquiry was opened into the scratching of Tambooli (Race 4) and High Flyin Teddy (Race 17). Club Secretary, T.Music, reported that these scratchings had been left on the office answerphone along with a veterinary certificate by fax. He was absent from the office late afternoon and the scratchings were found by him at 9am on race morning. Inquiries with the TAB immediately revealed that it was too late to include the first reserves in the fields. He also stated that he had a policy of leaving the office answerphone off, so that scratchings after hours, were received by him at home or on his mobile but on this occasion had not returned to the office after trials to turn the answerphone off.
