British Horseracing Authority to charge top jockey

A leading jockey has been notified by the British Horseracing Regulatory Authority (HRA) that he is to be charged in connection with an investigation into alleged race-fixing, according to the Racing Post.

The well-known rider is a top Flat jockey and the report claims the HRA’s investigation also involves a further three Flat jockeys and a former racecourse bookmaker.
