Berry wins claim for unpaid bills

Trainer Alan Berry won his claim for £903 (€1,360) when he sued owner Harry Sykes for unpaid invoices at Oldham County Court yesterday.

The court heard that Berry, 41, had five of Sykes’ horses at his yard at Cockerham, Lancashire – Ishela, Princess Perfect, The Loose Screw, Chantilly Sunset and Liliana – from the end of 2002 until summer 2003.
