Result of an Appeal (Anthony Knott) heard by the Appeal Board on Wednesday 22 April 2015
On 22 April 2015 the Appeal Board of the British Horseracing Authority (BHA) heard an appeal by Anthony Knott against the decision of the Disciplinary Panel dated 25 November 2014 that determined that Knott had committed a breach of Rule (A)37, and against the penalty of a three-year disqualification imposed upon him by the same Disciplinary Panel on 18 December 2014.
The Appeals against both finding and penalty were dismissed by the Appeal Board with a direction that the resolution of any issue as to costs be deferred to a later date.
The Appeal Board’s reasons for their decision will be published in due course.
