Donnacha O'Brien suspended for seven days after 'oversight'

The young rider is currently leading the standings in the race to be crowned Irish Flat champion jockey.

Donnacha O'Brien admitted to "an oversight" which came at a cost of a seven-day suspension at Galway on Friday evening.

O'Brien received the ban after he "attempted to weigh out without the harness attachment on his back protector" prior to riding Queen Iseult in a mile-and-a-half fillies' maiden.
