Jockey Danny Nikolic fronts Racing Victoria stewards next Thursday to answer a charge of contacting a professional punter during a January race meeting. Stewards quizzed Nikolic on Tuesday after betting exchange Betfair indicated there could be concerns about betting patterns in nine of the jockey's losing rides between November and January.
