Jockey Dylan Kitts barred from ALL racecourses and has licence suspended with immediate effect after Hillsin ride

JOCKEY Dylan Kitts is banned from attending any British racecourse after his licence was suspended following his controversial ride on Hillsin.

Kitts voluntarily stood down last Friday but following a disciplinary panel conducted on Thursday, his licence has been suspended.

Dylan Kitts will not be able to visit any British racecourses

Hillsin was a general 2-1 favourite the night before the race in question at Worcester but drifted out to 11-1 before the off.

The horse looked to be full of running as the pair cleared the final hurdle but he was tenderly handled and only finished third, to the outrage of punters.

The ride was initially referred to the BHA and Hillsin was suspended from running for 40 days.

The conditional jockey has not ridden since after voluntarily standing himself down the next day.

Kitts has already made the headlines this year after he was slapped with a 14-day non-trier ban following a ride on Jet Of Dreams for Warren Greatrex in May.
