Ontario Racing Commission v. MacDonald, 2010 CanLII 99098

Penalty for failing to attend hearing stayed on conditions based on agreed statement of facts.

The appellant, a standardbred licensee, appealed a penalty of a $1,000 fine and a three-day suspension for failing to attend a hearing as a witness.

Based on an agreed statement of facts, the Ontario Racing Commission stayed the original penalty on the condition that a warning letter be placed in the appellant's file for 12 months, with escalating penalties for any subsequent failure to appear.

Brenda Spence, 2010 CanLII 99102

Appeal of Judges' ruling on breaking rule dismissed; horse lost ground in compliance with rules.

The appellant appealed a Judges' ruling that a horse finished first and was not placed for failure to lose ground while on a break.

The Ontario Racing Commission denied the appeal, finding that the driver pulled back the horse and lost ground, thereby complying with the breaking rule.

The Commission noted that the appeal was frivolous but declined to levy a fine because the appellant misunderstood the rule's application.

ORCOntario Racing CommissionOct 22, 2010

Windsor Raceway Inc., 2010 CanLII 100491

Appeal to reduce race dates dismissed due to industry-wide moratorium and new allocation framework.

Windsor Raceway Inc. appealed a Director's decision refusing its application to amend its 2010 approved race date schedule by eliminating 15 race dates.

The Ontario Racing Commission dismissed the appeal, noting that the racing industry was facing declining revenues and that the Commission had imposed a moratorium on race date reductions to implement a principled, industry-wide framework.

The Commission found that Windsor's application to cut dates was a superficial remedy that did not align with the new framework and that Windsor had not demonstrated sufficient hardship to warrant an exception to the moratorium.

ORCOntario Racing CommissionOct 18, 2010

Re Joanne Colville, 2010 CanLII 99120

Appeal allowed and race order of finish revised after finding of interference during stretch run.

The appellant, a standardbred licensee and owner of the horse Keystone Raptor, appealed a judges' ruling that found no interference by another horse, Big Bay Point, during a race.

The Ontario Racing Commission panel reviewed the evidence and found that Big Bay Point drifted out during the stretch run, impeding Keystone Raptor's path and causing a loss of momentum.

The panel allowed the appeal and revised the order of finish to place Keystone Raptor first.

ORCOntario Racing CommissionOct 18, 2010

Bruno Schickedanz v. Woodbine Entertainment Group, 2010 CanLII 99101

Appeal of suspension of racing privileges dismissed; track operator acted reasonably to protect animal welfare.

The appellant, Bruno Schickedanz, appealed a decision by Woodbine Entertainment Group (WEG) to suspend his stabling and racing privileges after his 13-year-old horse, Wake at Noon, was euthanized following a breakdown during a workout.

The Ontario Racing Commission found that WEG acted appropriately in the public interest and to protect the health and welfare of horses.

The Commission held that WEG's exercise of its private property rights to exclude the appellant was reasonable and that no basis for ORC intervention was established.

The appeal was dismissed.

ORCOntario Racing CommissionOct 6, 2010

John Gouveia (Re), 2010 CanLII 98974

Licensee's request to pay fine in installments or race prior to payment denied.

The licensee withdrew his appeal of a 90-day suspension and $1,500 fine for a positive TCO2 test and breach of probation.

At the hearing, he requested an installment plan to pay the fine or permission to race with his winnings directed to the Commission until the fine was paid.

The Ontario Racing Commission denied the requests, noting that granting them would set an unmanageable precedent and that fines must be paid before a licensee can return to racing.

ORCOntario Racing CommissionOct 4, 2010

Anatram Singh v. Ontario Racing Commission, 2010 CanLII 98986

Licensee's suspension lifted after panel found failure to attend test was a genuine misunderstanding.

The licensee appealed a suspension imposed for failing to appear at a scheduled follow-up test under the Rules of Thoroughbred Racing.

The Ontario Racing Commission found that the failure to appear was due to a genuine misunderstanding and was not intentional.

The panel lifted the suspension and ordered that the licensee's existing post-violation agreement remain in effect without changes.

ORCOntario Racing CommissionOct 4, 2010

Jay Polifroni v. Ontario Racing Commission, 2010 CanLII 98978

Appeal of horse maltreatment finding denied; penalty increased to 90-day suspension and $1,500 fine.

The appellant, a standardbred licensee, appealed a decision of the Judges suspending him for 45 days and fining him $1,000 for maltreatment of a horse.

The horse was found with severe welts consistent with whipping.

The Ontario Racing Commission panel applied the balance of probabilities standard of proof and the reasonableness standard of review.

The panel found it reasonable to conclude the appellant caused the welts, given his history of temper and post-race whip use.

The appeal was denied, but the penalty was increased to a 90-day suspension (60 days stayed), a $1,500 fine, and mandatory anger management to serve as a stronger deterrent.

ORCOntario Racing CommissionSep 28, 2010

Kelly Sheppard (Re), 2010 CanLII 99103

Appeal of race placing denied as video evidence showed no violation of the pylon rule.

The appellant, a standardbred licensee, appealed a Judges' ruling that found no violation of the pylon rule by another driver during a race.

The appellant alleged the other driver went over and between the pylons, leaving the race course.

After reviewing the video evidence and hearing testimony, the Ontario Racing Commission found no conclusive evidence of a rule violation.

The driver's sulky wheel went over the pylon, which was in compliance with the rules.

The appeal was denied and the original order of finish was maintained.

ORCOntario Racing CommissionSep 27, 2010

Jay Polifroni, 2010 CanLII 99069

Stay of licensee's suspension extended pending appeal, conditional on no further rule infractions.

The licensee appealed a 45-day suspension and $1,000 fine for maltreatment of a horse.

A stay of the suspension had been granted pending the appeal.

The Ontario Racing Commission convened a hearing to determine whether the stay should be extended or terminated.

Upon hearing submissions from counsel, the Commission ordered that the stay remain in place until the rescheduled appeal hearing, on the condition that any interim rule infractions by the licensee would result in the automatic lifting of the stay.

ORCOntario Racing CommissionAug 27, 2010

Ross Armata, 2010 CanLII 99074

Licensee's suspension for failing to comply with vehicle search reduced, but fine increased to $2,000.

The licensee appealed a 20-day suspension and $1,500 fine for failing to comply with a vehicle search directed by Ontario Racing Commission investigators.

The panel denied the appeal but varied the penalty, staying 10 days of the suspension, increasing the fine to $2,000, and imposing a one-year probation period, citing the licensee's exemplary record and post-infraction cooperation as mitigating factors.

ORCOntario Racing CommissionAug 27, 2010

Ontario Racing Commission v. Richard Turcotte, 2010 CanLII 98987

Licensee reinstated with conditions, including a fine and stayed suspension, after refusing to provide a urine sample.

The licensee, a standardbred driver/trainer, requested a reinstatement hearing after being suspended for refusing to provide a urine sample in violation of his post-violation agreement.

The Ontario Racing Commission found that the licensee tampered with a sample, a serious offence.

The Commission ordered a $1,000 fine, a 60-day stayed suspension, two years of probation, and mandatory attendance at an after-care program and Cocaine Anonymous meetings.

ORCOntario Racing CommissionAug 25, 2010

Ontario Racing Commission v. Hudon, 2010 CanLII 98983

Licensee's suspension for breath sample violation lifted and replaced with fine and community service.

The licensee, a standardbred driver/trainer, appealed a suspension issued after he provided a breath sample showing a blood alcohol concentration in violation of the Rules of Standardbred Racing and his post-violation agreement.

The Ontario Racing Commission varied the penalty, lifting the suspension but imposing a $1,000 fine, 40 hours of community service with the Standardbred Adoptions Society, a new two-year post-violation agreement, and mandatory enrollment in an after-care program.

ORCOntario Racing CommissionAug 20, 2010

Joe Tavares v. Ontario Racing Commission, 2010 CanLII 99076

Appeal of horse disqualification for interference dismissed; Stewards applied rules correctly.

The appellant, a quarter horse trainer, appealed a Stewards' ruling that disqualified his horse from 3rd to 8th place for interference at the start of a race.

The Ontario Racing Commission panel denied the appeal, finding that the appellant presented no material evidence to show the Stewards applied the Rules of Racing incorrectly, and accepted testimony that the contact was incidental.

ORCOntario Racing CommissionAug 19, 2010

Joe Tavares v. Ontario Racing Commission, 2010 CanLII 99100

Horse racing appeal withdrawn; Commission directs educational seminar on rule interpretation for trainers and jockeys.

The appellant, a quarter horse trainer, appealed a decision by the Stewards at Ajax Downs to disqualify his horse from fourth to sixth place for interference at the start of a race.

At the hearing before the Ontario Racing Commission, the appellant withdrew his appeal.

The Commission allowed the withdrawal, ordered the official order of finish to remain as posted, and directed the presiding steward to hold an educational seminar for trainers and jockeys on the interpretation and application of racing rules.

ORCOntario Racing CommissionAug 19, 2010

Anthony Stephen v. Ontario Racing Commission, 2010 CanLII 99108

The appellant, a thoroughbred licensee, appealed a Stewards' ruling that fined him $500 and suspended him for three days for violating urging rules during a race.

At the hearing, the appellant requested to withdraw his appeal.

The Ontario Racing Commission accepted the withdrawal, leaving the original penalty in place, and assessed $200 in costs against the appellant for the late withdrawal.

ORCOntario Racing CommissionAug 19, 2010

Yannick Hardy, 2010 CanLII 99078

Jockey's appeal of suspension withdrawn; original penalty confirmed and $200 in costs assessed.

The appellant, a quarter horse jockey, appealed a one-day suspension imposed by the Stewards for causing interference during a race.

At the hearing, the appellant withdrew his appeal.

The Ontario Racing Commission accepted the withdrawal, confirmed the original penalty, and assessed $200 in costs against the appellant for the expenses incurred in scheduling the hearing.

ORCOntario Racing CommissionAug 19, 2010

Nicholas Steward, 2010 CanLII 98993

Appeal of three-day driving suspension for causing interference during a standardbred race denied.

The Ontario Racing Commission panel denied the appeal, finding no material evidence or proof that the Judges applied the Rules of Racing incorrectly.

The penalty was deemed appropriate.

ORCOntario Racing CommissionAug 19, 2010

Frank Huarte v. Ontario Racing Commission, 2010 CanLII 98954

Joint submission accepted reducing trainer's suspension to four months and fine to $2,500 for positive drug test.

The licensee, a thoroughbred trainer, appealed a ruling of the Ontario Racing Commission Stewards suspending him for one year and fining him $5,000 after his horse tested positive for codeine and morphine.

At the hearing, the parties presented a joint submission proposing a reduced penalty of a four-month suspension, a $2,500 fine, and two years of probation with conditions.

The Panel accepted the joint submission with minor variances, noting the absolute liability nature of the offence and the licensee's previously clean record.

ORCOntario Racing CommissionAug 5, 2010

Jeffrey MacLaren, 2010 CanLII 99073

Jockey's appeal of Stewards' decision denying a claim of foul dismissed; contact deemed incidental.

The appellant jockey appealed a Stewards' ruling that denied his claim of foul against two other jockeys during a Quarter Horse race.

The Ontario Racing Commission panel reviewed the testimony and race films, concluding that the contact between the horses near the start of the race was incidental and did not warrant a placing.

The appeal was denied, and the panel reminded licensees of their obligation to be forthright when testifying.
