Star jockey Jamie Kah has been handed a 10-meeting suspension after she was charged with careless riding at Flemington on Saturday.
Kah endured a rollercoaster day with victory on Goldrush Guru in the $2m Group 1 Victoria Derby the highlight.

She also secured an emotional victory aboard Another Wil in the Group 2 The Damien Oliver.
Kah and trainer Ciaron Maher were both close to prominent owner Colin McKenna, who died last Sunday, and fought back tears after the race.
And she suffered a suspected broken nose when her mount Hurry Curry twice reared her head back entering the stalls before the Wakeful Stakes and knocked the jockey in the face.
Kah required treatment on a bloodied nose but was cleared to continue riding.
On top of all that, Kah was charged with careless riding in race two on board Kuroyanagi.
Stewards said the interference, which happened near the 1100m mark, was ‘mid-range’ and issued a suspension starting on Wednesday, November 6 and concluding on November 14.
The ban rules Kah out of the final two days of the Melbourne Cup carnival, but she is free to ride Okita Soushi in the race that stops a nation.
“Rider Jamie Kah (Kuroyanagi) pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding under the provisions of AR 131(a), in that she permitted her mount to shift in near the 1100m when not sufficiently clear of I Am Velvet which was steadied off the heels of Kuroyanagi and checked,” the stewards report read.
“In assessing penalty, account was taken of her guilty plea, record and that the incident was in the mid-range.”
Kah is the second female jockey to win the Derby, after 2008 winner and fellow South Australian Clare Lindop.
“My plan was to get back on him. Couldn’t hold him early. I was going to be wide and somehow found a little gap to slot into,” Kah said after the race.
“Once I found the gap, he just fell asleep and gave me a beautiful run throughout. He won it a long way out and I could have stopped him for another lap, but he wanted to keep going.
“They’ve trained this horse to perfection, he’s looked good winning in Adelaide but obviously the class is a bit different. I didn’t know how we was going to measure up but they’ve done a good job.”
