Bradley ‘very disappointed’ at losing appeal

GRAHAM BRADLEY was said to be “very disappointed” after losing his High Court appeal against a five-year suspension from racing yesterday.

The former jockey turned bloodstock agent will be banned from entering any racecourse or premises owned, used or licensed by the Jockey Club as from today and he will also be barred from dealing in any capacity with a racehorse.

Bradley had claimed that the April 2003 disqualification order following proceedings before the Jockey Club’s disciplinary committee and appeal board was unlawful. However, Bradley’s claim was dismissed by a judge in London yesterday and he is now considering his options.
