Andrea Atzeni’s biggest win of of 2023 in last week's Yorkshire Cup has come at a considerable cost after he collected a second riding ban.
The Italian rider was suspended for four days on the day of his Group 2 victory on Giavellotto at York when he was found guilty of careless riding.
The Marco Botti-trained winner caused interference to Quickthorn and Broome in the staying contest and Atzeni was deemed to have made insufficient effort to correct or straighten his mount.
