He appeared in Hutt Valley District Court this morning and has been remanded without plea until 4 March.
Suppression was not opposed.
His lawyer Carrie Parkin did not enter a plea.
Outside court, Bergman refused to answer questions before driving off.
One of his bail conditions is to stay away from any racecourse in the country.
