The 42-year-old had his riding licence withdrawn for six months by an independent disciplinary panel.
Panel chairman James O’Mahony said the use of cocaine by riders was “pernicious” for the sport.
In another case heard on Thursday, jockey Finley Marsh, 22, also had his licence withdrawn for six months.
He admitted evading anti-doping testers after taking cocaine, calling it “a mistake that broke me for a very long time”. more
How long do you have to wait after taking cocaine before you get down to the legal limit?
Good thing Hunter is too big and too stupid to be a jockey. Poor horse would sense it’s carrying a crackhead

Living in NorCal during the 80z, I met people from Medellín, Columbia.
Some were x-jockys. They wore lots of Gold and Diamond jewelry.
Presently, they were transporting Race Horses to the US, from Columbia.
Race Horses were air transported and rushed thru the entry process.
These transporters, stuffed LARGE amounts of quality Cocaine up the horses asses.
Stuft – Great! You’ve just painted a picture of Hunter snorting a horse’s ass while Jackass Joe sez “That’s MY boy!”
The jockey’s story comes up short.
If you are going to get caught, Get caught BIGLEY!
