Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted December 10, 2018 Journalists Share Posted December 10, 2018 William Buick intends to appeal against the severity of the six-week ban imposed by the stewards for his ride in Sunday’s G1 Longines Hong Kong Vase. The jockey pleaded guilty to a charge of reckless riding after partnering the Tony Cruz-trained Pakistan Star (Ger) (Shamardal) to finish sixth in the Group 1 heat. Buick was found to have caused interference to both Waldgeist (GB) (Galileo {Ire}) and Red Verdon (Lemon Drop Kid) when going for a gap with a couple of furlongs to race, with the Hong Kong Jockey Club stewards suspending him from Dec. 17 to Jan. 28, which is equivalent to 12 Hong Kong racedays. Buick was also fined HK$20,000 for the rule breach, but intends to lodge an appeal against the sanctions. View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
