High Court to decide if Fallon rides in the Derby

A BRITISH High Court judge is deciding whether Kieren Fallon can ride in tomorrow’s Investec Derby at Epsom.

Mr Justice MacDuff, sitting in London, has been urged to grant an injunction by the owners of 2000 Guineas third Native Khan, which would prevent Fallon taking part in the premier Classic.

They claim that three-time Derby winner Fallon has broken a “promise” to ride their horse and should be prevented from riding another in the race.
