Murphy fined at disciplinary hearing
Timmy Murphy escaped a suspension at a Jockey Club inquiry today and was instead handed a £300 (€428) fine.
Murphy faced the disciplinary panel after being involved in an altercation with an official in the jockeys’ changing room following the Sharp Minds Betfair: Back and Lay Handicap Chase at Fontwell Park on November 5.
The panel considered whether Murphy acted in a violent or improper manner towards stewards’ secretary Chris Rutter after being called before the racecourse stewards.
