Irish trainer Paul Gilligan disqualified for six months by the British Horseracing Authority

Irish trainer Paul Gilligan has been disqualified for six months at a rehearing by a disciplinary panel of the British Horseracing Authority for sending a horse to race at Uttoxeter who had previously competed at an unrecognised meeting in Ireland.

The Galway handler had received the same penalty in March, by a panel chaired by Matthew Lohn, for running Dubawi Phantom at Uttoxeter when he was not qualified to run in Britain.
