Jockey may be out of action for the ‘foreseeable future’ after suffering a leg injury in a fall at Naas on Sunday

The severity of Kennedy’s injury is yet to be confirmed, but Elliott told Racing TV: “It didn’t look good. I went down to the fence when he got the fall and he looked pretty sore.

“We’re not going to have [him] for the foreseeable future from what I’ve seen, not unless there’s a miracle.” “We’ll see how he is and see what the doctors say. Obviously we’ve eight weeks to Cheltenham and it’s not ideal,” said Elliott.“It looked like he was in pole position to be champion jockey. If it’s not going to happen this year, hopefully it will happen sometime for him.”

HSE needs to 'scale up' its use of private bedsMinister of State at the Department of Transport and Environment Jack Chambers has said there has been an under-utilisation by the Health Service Executive of bed capacity in private hospitals. What next, under-utilisation of beds in peoples homes ? This government is a busted flush. They flood the country with a de-facto open borders policy on immigration, while allowing our infrastructure to rot away. Nationalise them. That’ll solve ‘under-utilisation’. Balance in supply between public and private has been found to be wrong...rather than address under supply in Health, the Government follows same pattern in Health as in HousingCrisis becoming a customer of private market. PatLeahyIT PatKennyNT still not seeing the pattern?
