QUICK RETURN FOR CARBERRY

Published at

Paul Carberry will be back in action on Thursday after escaping serious injury in a fall at Navan on Sunday.

The jockey was taken to Navan General Hospital after receiving kicks to the head and lower back in a tumble from Third Agenda in the E.B.F Novice Chase but X-rays revealed only soft-tissue damage.

"I'm not too bad, just a bit bruised that's all," Carberry said today.

"I'll be back at Thurles on Thursday."

Carberry is currently in joint-second place behind Barry Geraghty in the Irish jumps jockeys' championship.
