MELBOURNE Cup runner-up Patrick Moloney has been hit with a whopping £11,000 fine – more than a third of his take-home pay.
The 29-year-old jockey, who has 609 career wins, pleaded guilty to a charge of careless riding when moving across the track in the closing straight.

Moloney sacrificed a hefty chunk of his £30,000 payday and was one of four jockeys banned on Melbourne Cup day.
The £2.5million first-place prize in the feature was won by 20-1 outsider Gold Trip, co-trained by English-born David Eustace and tipped up by Sun Racing columnist Matt Chapman.
