Bagenalstown based trainer John 'Shark' Hanlon said that he was 'very disappointed' with the decision of the IHRB to suspend his training licence for ten months and confirmed that he will be appealing the ban.
Hanlon told the PA news agency: “There is going to be an appeal put in straight away, that is one thing, and I can’t say too much at this stage as my legal team have advised me not to say too much.
“But we are very surprised and very disappointed with the results of the hearing."
