L Panella Newcastle race 1 9-11-13 after the winning post at the conclusion of the race directed her horse Heza Presidente down onto the back of Ballochbuie and in doing so made contact with K Barnes helmet. Stewards believed the appropriate penalty was 6wks but gave her 4wks due to feature race's coming up.

So that's 3 incidents in 6months, with 2 in the last 8 day's. Surely the stewards would be aware of this, I'm still puzzled to why only 8 wks for a 3rd offence in a short time.
