STEWARDS have found no rider was to blame for the tragic fall that claimed the life of jockey Desiree Gill at the Sunshine Coast this month.
The inquiry into Gill falling from her mount Celtic Ambition was concluded yesterday, with stewards taking evidence from riders Tegan Harrison, Priscilla Schmidt, Tiffani Brooker and Andrew Spinks, who all travelled in front of Gill up to the point of the accident.
Chief Steward on the night Martin Knibbs, told the jockeys no one rode in a careless, reckless or incompetent manner.
"I'd like you all to go away satisfied of that. The fall is nothing more than a tragic accident for horse and rider," Knibbs said.
"Incidents such as these are a reminder that each and every time jockeys go out on the track they face these potential consequences."
A post-mortem examination of Celtic Ambition found there were no significant abnormalities detected and furthermore an analysis from the Queensland Government Racing Science Centre found no prohibited substances in the horse's system, other than the barbiturate solution used to euthanase the horse on the night.
The Racing Industry has rallied around Gill's husband Barry since the accident, with a fund set up to support the family.
