Man apologises to Goffs over posts on social media after sale of horse

The owner of a horse sold in 2011 has apologised before the High Court to bloodstock sales firm Goffs for making allegedly "defamatory posts" on social media about the company.

In a statement read before Ms Justice Leonie Reynolds today, Mr James Carney apologised to the court about the posts he made arising out of the sale of a horse called Sensational Sema in 2011, in which he had an interest.
