Jockeys Adrian O´Shea and Robbie Colgan were both injured, but not seriously, at Killarney today.

Colgan, who was unseated from joint favourite Stage Manager in the Dawn Milk Handicap Hurdle, was dazed following the fall and is due to have his right elbow x-rayed before returning. He has been stood down for 48 hours and, pending the x-rays, is due to return on Saturday.

Adrian O´Shea, who fell from Furioso Dancer in the Aghadoe Heights Hotel & Spa Handicap Hurdle, suffered severe bruising to his mid back and has been taken to Tralee Hospital.
