HRV Stewards have issued a charge against licensed trainer Alison Chisholm under Australian Rule of Harness Racing (ARHR) 190(1) which provides:
A horse shall be presented for a race free of prohibited substances
It is alleged that the horse 'Jimmy The Editor NZ' was presented to race at Tabcorp Park Melton on 16 April 2016 by Mrs Chisholm when not free of cobalt, a prohibited substance when evidenced at a concentration above the allowable threshold.
The charges will be heard by the HRV Racing Appeals and Disciplinary (RAD) Board on a date to be fixed.
