        Waterhouse appeal which kicked off yesterday will continue for what is tipped to be
        another lengthy hearing today. Representatives
        for both Waterhouse and the New South Wales Thoroughbred Racing Board (NSW TRB) were
        present at yesterday's session which ran from 9.30am until about 6.40pm last night. Appearing for Waterhouse during yesterday's hearing were
        David Sackar, Paul Brereton and Clive Jeffries, while both Steven Rushton and Mark Watson
        represented the TRB. Waterhouse is appealing a two year disqualification and heavy
        fines after an inquiry into the formerly warned off bookmaker placing 500/1 bets on highly
        fancied runners to Peter McCoy. It is expected no decision will be handed down until at least
        tomorrow. |
