Michael Walker’s winning ride on Comin’ Through in the Tramway Stakes at Randwick has cost him a suspension.

Comin’ Through retained Saturday’s Group Two race after a scare when Christian Reith on third-placed Dixie Blossoms fired in a protest for interference on the turn.

The objection was dismissed but Walker’s shift on the turn was deemed careless.

He will begin the ban immediately and return to riding on September 13.
