The jockey Robbie Dunne has been suspended from riding for 15 days and a member of stable staff excluded from racecourses for a month over an extraordinary case in which half a pound of lead was handed to Dunne immediately after he rode a winner. Due to a mix-up with equipment before the race, Rocknrollrambo was carrying half a pound less than his allotted weight when he won a novice handicap chase at Chepstow in April 2017 by a distance of two and a quarter lengths.
