Darren Weir was back before the Victoria Racing Tribunal on Wednesday, as they delivered their verdict on three corruption charges.
Darren Weir has been found not guilty of three charges of engaging in conduct to corrupt the outcome of a race, including the 2018 Melbourne Cup.
Darren Weir told Racing Victoria stewards he came up with a plan to use an electronic jigger on his horses to try and get them to run to the best of their ability, and no more.Japanese-bred Tosen Basil and Yogi did not make the Cup field the following Tuesday, while Red Cardinal ran second last.to three charges of using a jigger on horses, three charges of animal cruelty and one charge of improper and dishonourable conduct.
“We are aware of the charges that have been made and until such time those charges have been heard and a decision has been made, Amy will be considered for mounting yard analyst work with Racing.com,” the broadcaster’s chief executive, Peter Campbell, told this masthead.Each of the five stables had a horse return a positive urine sample to formestane and anabolic steroid 4-Hydroxytestosterone on different days at different racetracks within seven weeks between February and April last year.
“The ARTG is the public database of therapeutic goods that can be legally supplied in Australia. This means that formestane cannot be legally supplied for use in humans in Australia.” In statements released in September last year, both the Kavanagh and Yargi stables pointed to contamination as a possible source of their positive swabs.“Since the irregularity, she has been tested multiple times and each time has returned a negative swab,” the Kavanaghs wrote.
