Jockeys in hot water at Huntingdon
Mistaking a rail at the start of the opening race at Huntingdon had dire consequences for eight riders as they picked up suspensions of around a fortnight each.
The majority of the field headed on an incorrect path to the right of a short strip of fencing in the very early stages of the Cromwell Stand Conditional Jockeys’ Handicap Hurdle and nearly all the offenders continued to the finish.
