Turf Club agree deal

The Turf Club announced yesterday it has reached agreement with the trainers’ and jockeys’ associations on procedures for the provision of telephone and bank records, in the event of such records being necessary as part of an investigation into betting malpractice.

A request for the furnishing of such records may be made only where the making of the request has been deemed reasonable by an adjudicating officer.

In the event that the records are not furnished, following the adjudicating officer’s decision, the Turf Club may apply to the courts to compel the person to provide the records required.
