The Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board’s referrals committee will begin hearing evidence at 9.30am on Friday, in the Gordon Elliott investigation.
Elliott has been “cooperating fully” with the IHRB investigation since it was announced after a photograph of him sitting on a dead horse was posted on social media last weekend.
The top Irish trainer has subsequently become subject to a temporary British Horseracing Authority ban on running any of his string in Britain, while top owners Cheveley Park Stud have moved their high-profile horses away from his yard.
Among those is the unbeaten Envoi Allen, who is now in the care of Henry de Bromhead.
