Published: August 11, 2010 02:55 pm EDT

The New Jersey Racing Commission confirmed this morning that trainer Jimmy Takter has filed an appeal of the placing of his horse, Pastor Stephen, in the Peter

Haughton Memorial, held on August 7 at the Meadowlands.

Pastor Stephen crossed the wire first, but was placed out of the money for interference in the backstretch.

The hearing, originally scheduled for this Saturday (August 14) at the Meadowlands, has been postponed to a yet to be determined date. Takter will be represented by attorney Dennis Dowd.
