Rockhampton thoroughbred trainer suspended

18 March 2024

The Queensland Racing Integrity Commission (QRIC) concluded an inquiry on 13 March 2025 into the alleged conduct of a licensed Rockhampton trainer.

After consideration of the evidence, stewards found the trainer guilty under rule AR228 for improper conduct. The trainer has appealed this decision to the Racing Appeals Panel (RAP) and the RAP has granted a stay until the appeal is heard.

As the matter is subject to appeal it is not appropriate for the QRIC to make further comment, other than to reiterate its commitment to maintaining the highest standards of animal welfare and integrity in the racing industry.

ENDS.
