Christophe Soumillon free to ride in £4million Arc de Triomphe as punters slate two-month ban for Rossa Ryan push

Christophe Soumillon was cleared to ride Vadeni in Sunday's Arc de Triomphe despite elbowing Rossa Ryan off his horse mid-race. He was given a 60-day ban for the incident. Some punters are angry about the length of the ban and the fact that it doesn't start until October 14. They are also angry that he can take part in the £4 million race at Longchamp.

Christophe Soumillon is free to ride in the Arc de Triomphe despite his two-month ban for pushing Rossa Ryan. Ryan was unharmed. The ban will cost Soumillion a lot of money. He will miss British Champions Day, Breeders' Cup and the Japan Cup.
