That you, Kristy Sultana, a registered trainer, while in charge of the greyhound ‘Melan’, presented the greyhound for the purpose of competing in race eight at The Gardens on 29 July 2016 in circumstances where the greyhound was not free of any prohibited substance.
The prohibited substance was 6alpha-hydroxystanzolol.
Following Ms Sultana’s early guilty plea to the charge, GRNSW Stewards have determined to impose a period of disqualification of eight weeks and a fine of $500.
