Couldn't see a bloody thing! Jockey Mark Zahra has been partly successful in his appeal to the Racing Appeals and Disciplinary Board against the severity of a 27-meeting suspension for not riding out his mount, Cue Sea, in a maiden at Ballarat last Thursday. Zahra misjudged where the the winning post was and did not see the eventual winner - who finished down the outside rail - due to the poor visibility. Zahra had his ban cut by five meetings and can resume riding on Mar 24.
