Prescott and Guillambert to appeal
Mark Prescott and Jean-Pierre Guillambert are to challenge the fine and suspension imposed over the running and riding of Secret Liaison at Newcastle on Monday.
The local stewards found the horse had not been ridden to obtain the best possible placing and Prescott was fined £2,000 (€2,900), Guillambert suspended for 14 days and Secret Liaison banned from racing for 40 days following the two-year-old’s debut seventh, beaten just over 13 lengths, behind Stepping Up in the Toteplacepot EBF Maiden Stakes.
