Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted January 20, 2022 Journalists Posted January 20, 2022 Jumps jockey Robbie Dunne, who was banned for 18 months-three of which were suspended–due to conduct prejudicial to racing for his harassment and bullying of fellow rider Bryony Frost, has appealed the decision. The 36-year-old rider denied all but one of the charges brought against him by an independent British Horseracing Authority (BHA) disciplinary panel. Originally, Dunne had seven days to lodge his appeal from the time the written reasons for the verdict were published on Jan. 6, but an application for an extension to Jan. 20 was granted by the disciplinary panel. Dunne has appealed both the findings of the panel and the penalty imposed by it. The BHA said in a statement, “The independent judicial panel has received an appeal from the representatives of Robbie Dunne in relation to the finding and penalty imposed on him by the disciplinary panel after its recent hearing. “The independent judicial panel will now convene an appeal board for the hearing and liaise with representatives of all parties regarding a potential date for the hearing, which will be communicated in due course.” The post Dunne Appeals Ban appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
