HEAVEN'S MARK - driver J Morrison defended a breach of Rule 869(3)(b) in that he drove carelessly by allowing his runner to strike the sulky wheel of BORRISOKANE when shifting ground inwards early in the run home resulting in the tyre being punctured. After viewing the replays and hearing evidence from Stewards and Mr Morrison, the Adjudicative Committee found the charge proved and Mr Morrison's driver's licence was suspended from the conclusion of racing on 9 October up to and including 14 October 2026 (2 days).
