A Grand National trainer has been sentenced to three years in prison for beating a man who was walking a dog on his land with a hockey stick.
Richard Evan Rhys Williams, known as Evan Williams, 54, repeatedly struck Martin Dandridge during the night-time assault in Llancarfan, Vale of Glamorgan.
Williams broke Dandridge's arm during the attack in December 2024.
Recorder Angharad Price called it "an appalling offence".
In March, a jury at Cardiff Crown Court took one hour 45 minutes to find Williams guilty of causing grievous bodily harm with intent.
On the night of the assault, Dandrige, 72, from Swindon, was staying at a holiday cottage near to Williams's racehorse training centre.
