A 'PHYSICAL ALTERCATION' BROKE OUT BETWEEN TWO HIGH-PROFILE JOCKEYS AT A RACE MEETING, WITH ONE OF THEM TAKEN TO HOSPITAL FOR MEDICAL TREATMENT AND STOOD DOWN FROM COMPETING 10:35,
29 May 2025 Down under drama erupted as two jockeys ended up fighting during a race meet in Australia. The altercation kicked off amid rising tension between two Group 1-winning jockeys,
Noel Callow and Kyle Wilson-Taylor, at Doomben, reported Racenet. Wilson-Taylor maintained he wasn't looking for trouble and hadn't been the aggressor, while he was able to
continue racing. But Callow was stood down for medical reasons and taken to hospital for a check-up, as Queenland's racing boss Kim Kelly confirmed: "I can confirm that a
stewards' inquiry has been opened into a physical altercation between two riders at the Doomben race meeting today. "A considerable body of evidence has been taken and the matter

like I would be suspended for two or three weeks then back for a week and then suspended again. "It got to the point where stewards said that I needed to go and see a sports
psychologist. It was a slow burn at the start. Article continues below "He comes around to my house and sits here for a couple of hours and we talk. But it has now really been a
