SHAPELY - shifted outwards and struck the sulky wheel of CHRISTIAN BALE near the 250m and broke in consequence losing all chance. Junior driver S Hill, assisted by driver J Cox, defended a charge under Rule 869(3)(b) that he drove carelessly in this incident. After viewing replays and hearing evidence from all parties the Adjudicative Committee found the charge proved and after considering submissions on penalty suspended Mr Hill's driver's licence from the conclusion of racing on 23 March up to and including 28 March 2025 (2 days).
