Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted April 25, 2018 Journalists Share Posted April 25, 2018 Hong Kong-based jockey Nash Rawiller has been banned for 15 months for tipping, and having bets himself, on horses he rode. The Hong Kong Jockey Club’s charges stated that the 43-year-old Rawiller on two occasions accepted, “pecuniary or other gifts or other considerations for providing tips in respect of horses he rode,” and also that he had an interest in bets placed on horses he rode on multiple occasions. “The Club’s handling of this matter demonstrates the expert nature and strength of the Club’s systems for the prevention and detection of breaches of the Rules of Racing, and our unwavering resolve to ensure the highest standards of the integrity in Hong Kong racing,” said Andrew Harding, Executive Director of Racing for the Hong Kong Jockey Club. Rawiller, former stable rider to Gai Waterhouse and the partner of such luminaries as More Joyous (NZ) (More Than Ready) and Pierro (Aus) (Lonhro {Aus}), currently sits third in the Hong Kong jockeys’ standings. The ban is effective immediately. View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
