    We should know next Friday what RAD's verdict is on HRV's decision to suspend the three

    ps Once again, I ask why this cannot be found on the Vic thetrots.com = Looks like a cover up of anything other than positive news

    Appeal dismissed. Suspensions reinstated from midnight 23/11.

    In essence the convictions from the magistrates court stand until the case goes to the county court and are then set aside. County Court won’t hear the case until Jan 2020 at the earliest. Interests of the industry placed ahead of the interests of the individuals.

    The full decision is a long but interesting read even if some might say obvious

    I bet VCAT lets them train/drive until the court case is heard !

    As I once posted in the Positives thread:

    I read in the Harness Racer that

    Matters put to VCAT will be limited to consideration of penalty, and not merit (i.e. VCAT will not re-consider if the RADB made the right decison in terms of guilty/not guilty)

    I struggle to see how VCAT can overturn the decision if the above is a true description of their power

    They will be appealing the severity of the penalty , it will be over 12 months until the court case. Almost certain VCAT will let them continue if the past is anything to go by.

    That is what I don't get - there is no specific penalty to appeal - they are suspended pending the outcome of an inquiry. If VCAT are not allowed to change the guilty decision - only rule on severity, surely the best they can do for them is to put a limit of say 6 months after which the 183 suspension lapses

    Neither HRV or the RAD can tell VCAT what they can or cant rule on. I think it would require parliament to change laws for that to happen. VCAT can overturn anything the others do at this stage. This is ruining integrity in our sport.
