On 27 September 2018, in accordance with Australian Harness Racing Rule (AHRR) 183(c), Harness Racing Victoria (HRV) Stewards suspended the licenses of Mr Nathan Jack, Mr Mark Pitt and Ms Lisa Bartley after they had been found guilty of charges under Section 195C of the Crimes Act 1958 (Vic).  These charges relate to engaging in conduct that corrupts or would corrupt the betting outcome of an event or event contingency. Under AHRR 183(d) and 15(d), Mr Jack, Mr Pitt and Ms Bartley were also prevented from racing or trialing any horses owned by them and excluded from attending any racecourse.

Mr Jack, Mr Pitt and Ms Bartley have lodged appeals against the Stewards decision to the HRV RAD Board.  Mr Pitt and Ms Bartley have also applied for a stay of proceedings.  The appeal and stay application hearings will be heard by the HRV RAD Board on a date to be determined.

As the Magistrates Court decision regarding the criminal charges remains subject to an appeal, HRV will not be making any further comment at this time.
