Supreme Horse Racing Ruled Off

[Wandering Eyes]

Irish-based National Hunt racing syndicate Supreme Horse Racing Club will not be permitted to own or co-own racehorses registered under Rules in Ireland, Horse Racing Ireland revealed on Thursday. The decision is the result of the Club failing to provide HRI with complete member information after repeated requests.

Horse Racing Ireland Director of Racing Jason Morris said, “Horse Racing Ireland has received a significant amount of correspondence from concerned members of the Club since we suspended the registration last month, and we will be in contact with any of the Club members we have details for, to update them on our decision today. We will be sharing our information with our colleagues in the BHA. We have also reported our concerns around the administration of the club to the relevant authorities.

“This week we have met with solicitor Patrick Kennedy of P.J O’Meara Solicitors in Thurles, who has been approached by a number of Supreme Horse Racing Club members laying claim to ownership of the horses. That grouping has expressed their intention, over time, to form a new ownership structure. We will continue to work with this group, and others, should they materialise. Patrick Kennedy can be contacted on racing@pjom.ie .

“HRI is open to accept the re-registration of these horses under accepted ownership structures. HRI cannot adjudicate as to the shareholding of these horses. In order to do so, HRI advises members to seek their own legal counsel or contact Patrick Kennedy in order for agreement to be found among the shareholders of each horse.”
