Hanagan To Miss Ebor


Paul Hanagan endured a mixed day at Newcastle as he rode a double on the card and picked up a riding suspension that rules him out of the totesport Ebor at York on August 18.The title-chasing jockey headed to Gosforth Park with 113 winners for the season to his credit and added to his tally on board the Kevin Ryan-trained Sharp Eclipse (5-2) in the Sendrig Construction Handicap.Hanagan had to be at his strongest to guide the three-year-old to a first career success at the 11th attempt, but the stewards handed him the one-day ban for using his whip with excessive frequency.Hanagan went on to complete his brace in the Support Good Causes At sportpool.co.uk Rating Related Maiden Stakes as 3-1 shot Mufti, trained by Jeremy Noseda, proved much too good for his rivals.The jockey also suffered narrow defeats when second on Nicola's Dream in the opening nursery and on Lake Chini in the six-furlong handicap, while he was third on Inside in the six-furlong maiden.
