Jockey Danny Brock accused of purposely stopping horses in 'extraordinary' betting and corruption scandal

Danny Brock is accused of purposely stopping horses in races. He is also accused by Andrew Perring, Eugene Maloney, Luke Olley and Luke Howells of taking part in a betting corruption conspiracy. Brock declined to take part at the hearing. He cited fears against his safety. The BHA representative Louis Weston said the betting on the races in question was 'extraordinary'. The three accounts connected to Brock took 51.44% of the profit on Betfair. Sean McBride, the son of trainer Philip Mc Bride, denies the charge. It is alleged that before the Southwell race, Perrings, Malony and McBride placed their biggest bets on Tricky Dicky.
