Stewards have withdrawn charges against Craig Robertson over his handling of a horse in a race at Echuca.
The announcement comes just two days before the matter was to be heard by the Racing Appeals and Disciplinary Board.
Racing Victoria issued a statement on Tuesday saying the two charges against Robertson for his ride on Bolshoi Bandit on April 10 had been withdrawn.
"Since the charges were laid, the stewards have obtained further evidence in relation to this matter, including detailed evidence from the chair of stewards on the day and the other stewards officiating at the race meeting, and obtained further legal advice from counsel briefed to appear for them," RV said.
"After considering the further evidence and legal advice, and having taken into account all of the circumstances of this specific case, the stewards have decided to withdraw both charges against Mr Robertson and have advised him accordingly."
Stewards had charged Robertson with not allowing Bolshoi Bandit, who finished last in the 11-horse field, to run on his merits.
