RAD Board date set for Stanley, Schofield

Friday 4 March 2016, 4:35pm

The Racing Appeals and Disciplinary Board will hear charges against trainer Brent Stanley and jockey Glyn Schofield on March 21.

Stanley and Schofield were charged last month by Racing Victoria stewards over the sale of unraced two-year-old Equita to Hong Kong.

Now racing as Dancing Flames, the colt won on debut and has since finished in the placings on two occasions, the latest on February 14 with Schofield in the saddle.

Stewards allege Schofield received $290,000 from the Hong Kong buyer, keeping $20,000 and Stanley $70,000 with the remaining $200,000 being passed to owners which included Racing Victoria chairman David Moodie and Stanley's wife.

Stanley has been charged with dishonest, corrupt, fraudulent, improper or dishonourable action as well as giving false evidence.

Schofield has been charged under a different rule in that he did not have permission from Racing Victoria to be buying or selling bloodstock.

He is facing a similar charge before Racing NSW stewards along with media personality Richard Callander and Chris Waller's racing manager Liam Prior over the sale of Lil Caesar to Hong Kong.
