Patrick O'Brien was suspended for 14 days by raceday stewards at Roscommon on Tuesday evening after they adjudged he had stopped riding close home, costing him victory on the Eric McNamara-trained Gaelic Des Chastys in the 2m5½f handicap chase
.

The 5lb claimer is having an excellent season, partnering ten winners from 92 rides, including successes for Dermot McLoughlin, Gavin Cromwell and Henry de Bromhead. He gained a notable success on the Harry Rogers-trained Cleopatra's Needle at the Galway festival last week.

O'Brien did not use his whip in the last 50 yards, opting for hands and heels, and Ricky Doyle came with a withering late challenge on the Martin Brassil-trained It's Never Simple to get up by a short head at odds of 16-1.
