Date set for O'Connor hearing

THE International Equestrian Federation (FEI) expect to be able to confirm today the date for Olympic champion Cian O'Connor's oral hearing.

It is likely to be around mid-February, but yesterday FEI spokeswoman Muriel Faienza would not confirm when.

"There are several people we can't reach at present, but it is more than likely to be tomorrow (Friday) before we can announce a date," she said.
