'Time to move on' say trainers backing Robbie Dunne on Hereford return from bullying ban

Trainers backing Robbie Dunne on his return from a 10-month bullying ban believe it is time to move on from the scandal that rocked racing.

Gary Hanmer and Ian Williams give the jockey two of his three mounts at Hereford's fixture on Tuesday afternoon. Dunne has been suspended since December 2021 for his “deliberate, unwarranted targeting” of rival jockey Bryony Frost.

The ban, for his conduct between February 14 and September 3 2020, was reduced from 18 months on appeal. Dunne's last winner before an independent panel of the British Horseracing Authority ruled on the evidence was on Sir Tivo at Doncaster.
