A horse trainer who was laid off by billionaire stud owner Luke Comer after banned substances were found in some of the stud’s animals claims Mr Comer had tried to bribe him into “accepting the rap” for what happened.
Jim Gorman, who was Mr Comer’s training manager at his Brookville Racing Ltd firm for six years, has made the claim in High Court proceedings seeking information about defamatory allegations he says were made against him.
