Michelle Payne will be allowed to ride Husson Eagle in Queensland with authorities granting her a licence for Magic Millions day.
Racing NSW this week refused to allow Payne to ride Husson Eagle in a lead-up race at Randwick on Saturday, citing integrity concerns regarding her dual trainer/jockey licence in Victoria.
The Queensland Racing Integrity Commission met on Tuesday and decided Payne could ride Husson Eagle, who is trained by her brother Patrick, when he defends the Magic Millions Sprint on January 14.
