FORMER Dorset trainer Gay Kelleway claims she has been harassed by the makers of a TV programme aiming to expose alleged corruption in racing.

Kelleway, who operated at Whitcombe near Dorchester in the mid-nineties, called the police to her new stables in Newmarket after finding herself the victim of an interrogation reminiscent of investigative reporter Roger Cook.

The complaint follows a controversial incident during racing at York this week when champion jockey Kieren Fallon was reportedly verbally abused by members of an unidentified camera crew.

Kelleway, who now plans to seek legal advice, said: "Two cars pulled into the yard and it was like watching The Cook Report. They jumped out with their cameras and pushed them in my face.

"One of them asked 'Is it true you have a No Lose (betting) account with a leading bookmaker?' I said, 'I have an account with them but it is in the red at the moment,' and I was laughing, but he said 'No, it is a No Lose account' and went on to say 'We have a letter here,' which may I add did not have my signature on, and then somebody came out of the house and told me not to talk to them."

Kelleway added: "I got the police in. I don't need this harassment. I have never ever been to the Jockey Club about anything wrong for God's sake. Why are they picking on me?"

Last month it was revealed a team from BBC's Panorama had plans to investigate the sport, but there have suggestions another production company may be working on a similar project.

In a separate claim, Hungerford-based trainer Alan Jones revealed that he had been bombarded with telephone calls from a TV crew over a three-week period including "20 to 30" on one day.

Jones was one of the five trainers raided this year by Jockey Club vets testing for the banned drug EPO, all tests proving negative.
