PJA news update: Jockeys issue statement after meeting with BHA board

Monday 17 October: Professional Jockeys Association Chief Executive Kevin Darley said: "We had a productive meeting with the BHA board this afternoon.

"They listened to all the points that we made about the working of the new whip rules. It was very useful for the PJA to have senior Jockeys like A P McCoy, Frankie Dettori, Ryan Moore and Richard Hughes present because they were able to paint various different race-riding scenarios to the board members.

"We will now await the BHA coming back to us. We can then see where we stand because the Jockeys as a group will have to find the rules workable."
