Browne's ban hearing is adjourned

Dermot Browne's 10-year ban from British racecourses, due to expire on Sunday, will continue for another month at least after today's hearing was adjourned. The disgraced former jump jockey and trainer was not at Jockey Club headquarters, but his legal team successful applied for an adjournment.

A new date has been provisionally arranged for Thursday, November 21. In the meantime, Browne is excluded from premises owned and licensed by the Jockey Club. Browne was warned off for a number of offences including passing on information to a bookmaker for monetary reward. The Jockey Club are seeking a fresh ban following Browne's claims that he doped over 20 horses between August and September 1990.
