After physiotherapy this morning, folllowing his fall in Dundalk on Sunday last, Johnny Murtagh /a> has taken advice not to ride at Down Royal this evening.

Wayne Lordan will now take up the rides on the David Wachman pair of Dreamalittledream in the first race and Carlito Brigante in last. It has yet to be decided who will ride his other mount Trojan War for Aidan O'Brien.

However the Meath man will definitely be fit to ride in Doncaster tomorrow where he takes the mount on Changingoftheguard in the last English classic of the year, the Ladbrokes St Ledger.
