Stewards had plenty to work through after Saturday's Rising Stars Series Final at Flemington, leaving one apprentice on the sideline and another narrowly escaping penalty.

Thomas Sadler received a 10-meeting ban after he pleaded guilty to careless riding aboard Friday Hussy in the early stages of the race.

Sadler shifted in on Friday Hussy, which caused Harry Coffey to check his mount Rememba Howe.

Stewards took exception to Kayla Nisbet's ride on the $3.40 favourite Warwarick in the same race, especially with her efforts at the 900-metre mark.

Chief steward Terry Bailey told Nisbet she "missed the boat" by not switching Warwarick to the outside to make ground before the David Hayes-trained mare worked home to finish fourth.

Warwarick pulled up lame in a foreleg, a fact Bailey said saved Nisbet "from heading back to headquarters" to answer a charge of not giving her mount every chance to obtain the best possible placing.

"You're in first grade now, you're riding in the metro area on a Saturday regularly," Bailey told Nisbet.

"You've ridden plenty of winners and we expect better from you."

Bailey referred Nisbet's ride to the Riding Skills Panel for analysis.

Senior riders Daniel Stackhouse and Chris Symons also left Flemington with 10-meeting bans after they pleaded guilty to careless riding charges in the opening two races.

Stackhouse received his penalty for causing interference on Gloop in the Hong Kong Jockey Club Handicap while Symons was suspended for his ride on second-placed Jessy Belle in the Vintage Crop and the Curragh Racecourse Handicap.
