Tuesday’s racing round-up brings news of an eventful day at Lingfield…

Four jockeys received ten-day bans following the opening apprentice handicap at Lingfield on Tuesday. Certain Style was sent to the front by jockey Tyrese Cameron and after building up what would go on to prove an unassailable lead, Laura Morgan's charge was allowed to coast home to score by a staggering 22 lengths. Kyle McHugh, Mason Paetel, Warren Fentiman and Chloe Lyons were all found to have misjudged their rides in behind and were subsequently called into the steward's room. Speaking to Sky Sports Racing, former jockey and chief steward Fergus Sweeney explained: "We found the four jockeys guilty of failing to take all reasonable and permissible measures so therefore they all got 10 days. In layman's terms, they rode a misjudged race, and we went for the entry point as they are all inexperienced riders."
