US STAR SMITH BARRED FROM FIVE RIDES. BY PETER SCARGILL .
“VISA TERMS RULE SMITH OUT OF FIRST UK RIDES.”
“MIKE SMITH, the US Hall of Fame jockey who partnered wondermare ZENYATTA in her glittering career, was left confused and disappointed yesterday after he was unexpectedly denied the chance to take his first British rides at Lingfield today by the intervention of the UK Border Agency.
“SMITH has flown to Britain to ride Royal Ascot prospect GENTLEMAN’S CODE for US trainer Wesley Ward at Folkestone on Thursday and was subsequently booked for five rides at Lingfield when trainers were made aware of his presence in the county.
“However, SMITH 45, was withdrawn from his mounts yesterday when the UBKA advised the BHA that riding today would be breaching his visa terms, which in turn could prevent him returning for events such as Royal Ascot.
“SMITH, who spent yesterday morning touring Newmarket, appeared to be philosophical about not being able to ride at Lingfield but he expressed disappointment that he would now not have the opportunity to meet other riders and the media before Folkstone ………

"FABRE: "This is my best chance to win a Derby" JON LEES reports.
"ANDRE FABRE is prepared to become a royal spoilsport by beating the Queen's CARLTON HOUSE with POIR MOI, a colt he said yesterday offered him 'the best chance I ever had' of winning the Investic Derby.
"On a flying visit to Epsom, France's 22-time champion Flat trainer said he would "attempt to be unpopular in beating Her Majesty's horse" as he committed POIR MOI to the Classic after the MONTJEU colt exercise on the course at the Breakfast With The Stars event.
"Fabre, who had sent the horse ahead for an over night stay at the track, arrived by helicopter to see the Prix Greffulhe winner, under MICKAEL BARZALONA, pull stylishly clear of work companion O'KELLY HAMMER and banish any lingering concerns about his suitability for the £1,25 million contest a week tomorrow.
"As a result POIR MOI, owned by Derrek Smith, Sue Magnier and Michael Tabor, was cut to as low as 4-1 (from 6) second favourite by Boylesports and was last night shorter than Coolmore's leading Aiden O'Brien-trained contenders RECITAL and SEVILLE with the vast majority of bookmakers.
"He's a relatively inexperienced horse and this was a good occasion to give him the experience he is lacking, said Fabre. 'We showed him the track, which is in beautiful condition. Everything went well so I'm quite happy ........"
"Gosden leads call for increased media focus ....With the Queen's CARLTON HOUSE the hot favourite, racing has been gifted an opportunity to spread it's message way beyond the normal parish boundary and the Derby-winning trainer said'It would be fantastic for the Queen and wonderful for racing, and once we get through the European Cup final I'd like to see it hitting the headlines a little bit more than it has been. It's something to get truly excited about."
GRAHAM DENCH Reports "FALLON Derby ride still in doubt after KHAN works."
"FOLKLORE US superstar jockey MIKE SMITH left his mark on Folkestone yesterday when he made his first ever ride in Britain a winning one." p9
