Racing: Jockey club to hear Kinane's appeal

Mick Kinane will appear before the Jockey Club this morning to appeal against a seven-day ban that could rule him out of the Kentucky Derby on May 4.

Kinane was given the suspension for irresponsible riding at Newmarket. Should he fail to have the decision overturned, he will not be eligible to ride Johannesburg in the Kentucky Derby in eight days’ time.
