Fallon’s ban cut to one day

KIEREN FALLON was partially successful in his appeal against a two-day ban at Jockey Club headquarters in London yesterday.

At a hearing of the disciplinary panel, which lasted about 45 minutes, the champion jockey had his suspension reduced to one day (Thursday) and he also had his £450 deposit returned.

He was handed the two days July 31 and August 1 by the stewards at Ayr last Monday after they judged him guilty of careless riding on Princely Venture, winner of the Daily Record Scottish Derby.
