Martin Dwyer Successful In BHA Application

Martin Dwyer has succeeded in his application to the British Horseracing Authority not reciprocate the 56-day ban he was handed in India following a ride in February this year.

The decision not to impose the Indian suspension brings to a close a sequence of events which at one stage saw Dwyer have his ban increased to eight months on an initial appeal.

However, that sentence reverted to 56 days on a second appeal to the Indian authorities last month and the disciplinary panel of the BHA has now agreed not to impose the ban at all in Britain.
