RUBY WALSH said on Saturday that that he could review the frequency of his visits to Britain after he breached the new whip rules at Aintree - where jockeys threatened to boycott the following race in support of their colleague.

Reacting to the ban, an angry Walsh said: “The punishment didn’t fit the crime. I miss a Grade 1 chase at Down Royal and a good race at Cork. If that deserves a five-day ban the game is f***ed."

The ban sparked discussions between Walsh’s weighing room colleagues, who were reluctant to participate in the sixth race, with the jockeys only deciding to ride after champion jockey Tony McCoy intervened.
