- Fellow National Hunt jockey Robbie Dunne is being investigated
- BHA report was leaked to the Sunday Times newspaper
There is an apparent culture in National Hunt racing’s weighing rooms which accepts bullying and intimidation as a normal part of a jump jockey’s job, according to a report in the Sunday Times. The allegations have come to light after a report by a British Horseracing Authority investigator into a complaint of bullying lodged by Bryony Frost against her fellow jockey, Robbie Dunne, was leaked.
The existence of a potential disciplinary case involving Frost and a weighing-room colleague has been widely acknowledged within racing for many months. The BHA confirmed in a statement on Sunday that the “case is close to reaching its conclusion”.
