INTERFERENCE RULES SIMPLIFIED AND HARMONISED WITH IRELAND
From 1st May 2003, a revised interference rule will be in place which reduces the number of categories of offence from six to three. The three categories are Dangerous riding, Careless riding and Improper riding. Rule changes being introduced in Ireland will mean that incidents of interference will be subject to the same treatment in both countries.
The most important aspect of the change, from the British perspective, is the removal of the irresponsible riding category. From May 1st riding offences which cause interference that is not deemed 'serious' will be considered to be 'Careless' on the part of the rider, for which he will receive a caution or an appropriate suspension.
Consequently, the threshold level at which a horse and rider face automatic demotion has been raised, thereby reducing the potential for a winner on merit to lose a race.
Only in the event of the rider causing serious interference either through intent or recklessness, offences which will now be deemed 'Dangerous' riding, would a horse be automatically disqualified. The potential for a horse to be demoted because it has improved its placing as a result of interference has not changed.
Malcolm Wallace, the Jockey Club's Director of Regulation, said:
"The initial catalyst for reviewing Rule 153 was to seek a way of harmonising the British and Irish rules on interference. However, in merging the two sets of rules a number of other benefits have transpired.
"Firstly, because the new rule is simpler it should enable the results of enquiries to be announced quicker. Currently, time is taken up while panels decide whether or not a manoeuvre has taken place and the precise category of interference. Under the revised rule, the only options they will have are Accidental, Careless or Dangerous, or in some cases Improper.
"Secondly, I believe the changes make the interference rules considerably easier to understand and to explain to the participants and the public. Simpler rules should also serve to increase the consistency of decision making.
"Finally, I'm delighted that we have achieved harmonisation on this matter with another major European turf authority. Over the past year we have worked closely with the Irish Turf Club in a bid to harmonise our procedures, and both sides have made changes to their respective rules. The British and Irish host each others' horses and jockeys on an increasingly regular basis, with similar racecourses and stewarding systems, so it makes good sense that we share the same interference rule.
"We already share with the Irish the fundamental principle that the first horse past the post gets the benefit of the doubt when deciding whether a horse should be demoted or not. In this, we differ from the continental authorities who favour the sufferer. Having said that, these changes will bring our rules closer to those in place worldwide, though not I believe at the expense of compromising the safety and welfare of horse and rider, which remains the primary reason for policing interference. Any riding offence which puts other riders or horse at risk will be punished with appropriately lengthy suspensions.
"My thanks go to Christopher Hodgson, who stood down as Disciplinary Steward at the end of last year, for his hard work in assisting change in this matter, as well as our colleagues at the Turf Club in Ireland. British racing has come a long way in a relatively short time with regard to the rules on interference. It was only ten years ago that every riding offence was accompanied by automatic demotion."
