Charlie Deutsch to have first ride on Tuesday after serving time in prison

Charlie Deutsch is hoping to put the past behind him and focus on restarting his promising riding career as he prepares for his first race since leaving prison, at Huntingdon on Tuesday.

The 22-year-old jockey was released from prison on licence in August after serving two and a half months of a ten-month sentence, having pleaded guilty to dangerous driving while over the drink drive limit and escaping police custody.

Deutsch will resume race riding when he is given the leg up on the Lawney Hill-trained Rogue Dancer in the Brampton Handicap Chase.
