'She was riding Benz for me and he's almost always one of the first ones out on the track,' trainer Gordon Richards said.

'There are plenty of foxes around at that time and he shied at one and threw her ... and clipped her on the way through.

It comes just days after Jordsjo claimed victory riding the $4 favourite Murti on Saturday when her boyfriend Josh Cartwright crashed into two horses, stopping them from overhauling the winning horse.

Cartwright pleaded guilty to the serious charge in the final race on Saturday when he shifted out in the straight and cannoned in to another horse which in turn made heavy contact with the horse to the outside.

Jason Holder, rider of the second affected horse, almost came off but managed to regather and stay on his mount.

Cartwright holds a dual licence and is scheduled to have his first runner as a trainer in the next few weeks.
