Harness Racing Victoria has rejected Emma Stewart’s transfer of horses to partner Clayton Tonkin.

I can envisage the Stewart stable working around the disqualification once the penalty is finalized. I cannot see how they can stop Clayton from putting all their new season 2yo's in his name (they would not be transfers as they are unlikely to have been registered in Emma's name as yearlings), the older ones could be shared out to their regular drivers - Mark/Lisa Pitt, Andy/Kate Gath, Kerryn Manning, James/Ashleigh Herbertson, even Luke/Belinda McCarthy

Not only has Emma won a race at Ballarat tonightOriginally Posted by Messenger
But so has Clayton
with a horse that was previously trained by Emma
Champagne Delight had not started since Nov 25, 2022
Maybe they were able to show that she was transferred to Clayton BEFORE the disqualification

The above Champagne Delight's dam is Champagne Dreams - a half sister to Lazarus

Stewart and Tonkin had 3 in at Ballarat for 3 winners = $1.50, $1.35, $1.07
The $1.07 winning on debut is The Lost Storm's half sister

I half wonder whether the Stewart stable has been told to keep a low profile and it will blow over

This afternoon PP has posted a summary of what has been happening in regards to the Stewart Disqualification
Edit: I have just noticed that it is basically what HRV have posted here
https://www.thetrots.com.au/news/art...ess-transfers/
I am wondering whether Stewart's legal team aren't disputing the decision to not allow her to transfer horse to Clayton, on the basis 'as to why can't she?' as she is not currently disqualified but on a stay

HRV have got themselves into this trouble because they didn't force a training team to be registered as one. Both trainers should be disqualified !
Don't die wondering !
The stable is certainly keeping a low profile with what seems far fewer starters than usual
If what PP is suggesting about analysis of the saline drips turns out to be true then the breeding industry will have been corrupted immensely as 100's if not 1,000's of wins will be tainted

Just when I was beginning to wonder why they didn't just serve the 6mth suspension (as they have been racing so infrequently) we hear they have had some sensational 2yo's trialing
