Mick Fitzgerald: Gordon Elliott picture made me sick to my stomach. He must learn from his mistake

TARNISHED FIGURE: Gordon Elliott oversees his string at Cullentra House. In the wake of the emergence of a picture of Elliott astride a dead horse on his gallops, Mick Fitzgerald feels ‘the IHRB have any option but to suspend Gordon’s licence to train for a period of time’.
When I first saw the picture that has horrified everyone and had such a destructive impact on an industry but also so many people’s lives, I thought it was a fake.
Who would do that? Not Gordon.
