IT must be a weight off Sean Levey’s mind to have finally received the all clear from the BHA.
Everyone in the sport knew he’d done nothing wrong, despite failing a drugs saliva test at the back-end of last year.
But they have only just made the announcement official, that he was the victim of a false positive. It can’t have been nice for Sean having that hang over you all this time.
And let’s not forget, it potentially cost him a £20,000 Racing League bonus as he was forced to sit out the final fixture while they waited for his ‘B’ sample.
I can’t believe it has taken the BHA so long to put this to bed – we are talking 10 months for goodness sake.
