Robbie Dunne, jockey

Banned for 18 months, should have been longer. Seems an odious piece of work. Strange that none of his fellow jockeys who were often within earshot of his verbal abuse of Bryony Frost were willing to give evidence against him.

It’s been a predominantly male dominated sport for years but over the last six or seven years women have shown just how good they can be in the saddle
Typically punters would shy away from backing a horse ridden by a woman but today that’s not the case
Katie Walsh and Nina Carberry were fantastic Irish female jocks that I wouldn’t hesitate in backing any horse they rode and today we have Rachael Blackmore who is Henry DeBromheads stable jockey
Bryony Frost is class along with many others coming through
It’s a sad indictment of age old sexism that Robbie Dunne subjected Bryony to this bullying
Obviously he saw her as a threat
Horse Racing is a dangerous sport and a great leveller
I applaud anyone that gets on top of a horse jumping fences at 20 mph in all weathers
Mr Dunne has unfortunately lost the only livelihood that he’s ever known for being a complete twat

Bryony Frost wins her case alleging misogynist behaviour by a fellow jockey - then gives her first interview following the verdict to that champion of women's rights - The Sun!
