Thirteen people, including jockeys Paul Doe, Greg Fairley, Kirsty Milczarek, Jimmy Quinn and former rider Paul Fitzsimons, now a trainer, as well as two owners, have been charged by the BHA with serious breaches of the rules of racing.
Obviously there is not much I can add to the news that hasn't already been written in the newspapers and websites this morning other than to express my dismay that yet again the great sport of horseracing is making the headlines for all the wrong reasons. If only as many column inches could be filled by the great stories we have had in recent times such as the brilliant Sea The Stars and Big Bucks winning a third World Hurdle plus the wonderful Summer we have too look forward to with the likes of Frankel, Canford Cliffs and of course Carlton House favourite for the Derby for the Queen.
Lets hope the BHA get to the bottom of it all very quickly and if anyone is found guilty that they are dealt with swiftly and appropriately.
