No horse at Epsom and no jockey at Navan!

The Dunshaughlin woman was due to have partnered Diore Lia until the British Horseracing Authority blocked her from riding due to a 'lack of experience' with another apprentice, Paddy Pilley taking over.

Racing can be a 'funny old game' as in the second race at Navan today, a runner trained by Tom McCourt had to be withdrawn as no suitable jockey was available to ride Sadie Babes in the five-furlong apprentice handicap, the second race on the card.
