Findlay and Coward clash

PA News

Harry Findlay was reported to have been involved in a confrontation with British Horseracing Authority chief executive Nic Coward at Doncaster.

The owner was said to have argued with Coward on Town Moor as the fall-out from his suspension earlier this year - which was successfully overturned on appeal - rumbles on.

The owner later left the track, but was reported to have said he would repeat his views at the track on Friday when Black Moth, which he part-owns, lines up in the opening Flying Childers Stakes.

Findlay has made no secret of his dissatisfaction over the BHA's handling of his disciplinary hearing earlier in the year.

In June this year, Findlay was banned for six months in connection with laying his own horse, Gullible Gordon, on two occasions.

He later succeeded in having that decision reversed at an appeal hearing in July, when his punishment was commuted to a fine.
