RICHARD HUGHES is as big as 11-2 (from 3) with Coral for the British Flat jockeys' championship after a BHA disciplinary panel on Wednesday decided to uphold a 50-day riding ban he incurred in India last month.

The panel's decision severely dents Hughes's hopes of winning a first title, as the ban rules him out of the first full month of the Flat turf season.

SO YOU THINK, favourite for the Dubai World Cup, will mount his challenge from stall four of 14 for the world's richest race, with jockey Joespeh O'Brien declaring the favourite will "take all the beating."

Aidan O'Brien's contender will have second-favourite Smart Falcon next door in stall five, while Game On Dude, thirdin at 7-1, was last out of the hat and as a consequence is widest of all in stall 14.
Over confident methinks.
