Robl and Rawiller out for Christmas

Saturday 15 December 2012, 7:18pm

Jockeys Nash Rawiller and Peter Robl will be able to eat a little more than they usually do this Christmas after being sidelined by stewards at Rosehill on Saturday.

Rawiller was outed for shifting in aboard Passarli at the 700m on to eventual winner Regimental Pride in the two-year-old race on the program.

He vigorously defended himself in two separate hearings but to no avail with his ban to start after Sunday's racing and end on December 28.

Robl was outed for two charges in the 1900m race, which he also lost on protest when Scream Machine was declared the winner over his mount Marden.

Scream Machine's rider Kathy O'Hara was the victim of interference early in the race and again at the top of the straight.

Robl asked chief steward Ray Murrihy to put his Santa hat on and give out a little Christmas cheer and was duly rewarded with his two bans to be served concurrently.

He will ride at Thursday's Magic Millions meeting at Wyong and return on January 2.

The bans mean the two jockeys miss the Villiers Stakes meeting next Saturday and the Summer Cup on Boxing Day.
