The National Horseracing Authority confirms that at an Inquiry held in Port Elizabeth on Friday 19 July 2019, Jockey Ashby was charged with a contravention of Rule 62.2.3.
Devin Ashby
This arose in that he failed to ride OKAVANGO DELTA out to the end of the race, thereby prejudicing his chances of obtaining third position, in the 6th Race at Fairview Racecourse on 12 July 2019.
Mr Ashby pleaded not guilty to the charge, however the Inquiry Board found Mr Ashby guilty and imposed a penalty of a suspension from riding in races for a period of fourteen (14) days.
Jockey Ashby has the Right of Appeal against both the finding and the penalty imposed.
