Fanning hit by Leicester stewards

Joe Fanning was hit with an 18-day suspension after the Leicester stewards found him guilty of not riding out aboard Zar Solitario this afternoon.

The Mark Johnston-trained three-year-old was sent off the 10-11 favourite for the Ladbrokes.com Kibworth Handicap, in which he dead-heated for first place with 33-1 outsider New Beginning.
