Elliott Banned Joey Elliott got a 14-day ban for insufficient effort on Eddie Dowling, who finished tenth in the Smirnoff Maiden Hurdle. He was found to be in breach of Rule 212. The explanations of the trainer's representative, Ms. Annie Bowles were noted. However trainer, Gordon Elliott was found to have breached Rule 213, when failing to report a matter at Fairyhouse (where Eddie Dowling last ran), that may have affected his horses performance, and therefore was informed through his representative, Ms Bowles, that this matter was being referred to the Referrals Committee.
