Trainer Jessica Harrington and Jockey Mark Bolger have both lodged appeals against the decisions of the Tipperary stewards following the running of the Tipperary Supporters Club Maiden Hurdle last Friday.
The Harrington trained and Bolger ridden High Tail It caught the attention of the stewards when finishing fast to take second place in the race and at a subsequent enquiry the pair were adjudged to be in breach of Rule 212.
Harrington was fined E1,000, Bolger was suspended for 7 days and ordered to forfeit his riding fee while the horse was banned from running for a period of 42 days.
Mrs Harrington has appealed the E1,000 fine and the suspension of the horse while Bolger has appeal both his suspension and the forfeiture of his fee.
