Pike to Answer Stewards on Lord Tom Ride
5 July
www.westozracing.com

William Pike will front the RWWA stewards on Friday, after they adjourned an inquiry into his ride on favourite Lord Tom in the last race at Belmont yesterday.

Below is the extract from the stewards report:

An Inquiry was held into the reason for DJEDDAH STING (D. Staeck) being checked approaching the 200m. Evidence was taken from Jockeys D. Staeck, Jason Brown (ON THE RECORD), B. Parnham (OUR NAMATJIRA), W. Pike (LORD TOM), T. Turner (OROYA GOLD) and Apprentice J. Hill (ALPINE LAD) and her host trainer Mr A. Mathews.

Jockey W. Pike pleaded not guilty to a charge of careless riding under ARR.137(a) in that approaching the 200m he allowed his mount to shift inwards and crowd OUR NAMATJIRA inwards onto DJEDDAH STING with this being the major contributing factor to DJEDDAH STING being tightened for room and checking.

This Inquiry was adjourned to allow Jockey W. Pike to further question Jockey D. Staeck until Friday, 6 July 2007 at the offices of Perth Racing at a time to be fixed.
