The court found the Stewards and Jockey Club did not breach principles of natural justice in the circumstances; the plaintiff's case was an application case where detailed reasons need not be provided, the appellant had a full opportunity to be heard on appeal, and given Hong Kong's unique racing context the Stewards' decision was within the range of reasonable outcomes; therefore the originating summons was dismissed and the Club awarded costs.
