MELBOURNE Cup-winning jockey Michelle Payne has had to cancel her visit to the Pinjarra Racecourse this weekend due to conflicting riding engagements.
The Pinjarra Race Club advised on Monday that Payne had to cancel her visit to the racecourse for this Sunday’s Magic Millions meet due to riding engagements on Hobart Cup day which is on February 8.
Her agent was quoted on Pinjarra Park's Facebook page as saying Payne is “riding in the Hobart Cup the day after and it's too hard to get back in time”.
The Pinjarra Race Club apologised for any inconvenience caused but said the circumstances were beyond their control.
