BHA reject period pain plea and ban rider Charlotte Kerton for 42 days

A jockey has been given a 42-day ban after failing to persuade racing's ruling body that period pains had prevented her from riding a horse to the best of her ability. Charlotte Kerton was found to have given Valmari an intentionally poor ride at Kempton last month, when the horse finished 10th at 33-1.
