Rodgers hit with two years disqualification
Former Platinum Racing Club director Miles Rodgers was disqualified from British racing for two years by the Jockey Club today.
He was found guilty by the disciplinary panel of laying his own horse to lose with a betting organisation.
The hearing followed a Jockey Club investigation into the runs of Uhoomagoo at Redcar on October 28 and Million Percent at Wolverhampton on November 14.
Both horses ran under the ownership of Platinum Racing Club Ltd.
The investigation was the first under Rule 247, which came into force on September 1 and prohibits owners, trainers and stable staff from laying their own horses to lose.
