Cooper taken for x-rays on rib injury Bryan Cooper went for X-rays on a suspected fractured rib after a nasty incident at Kilbeggan this evening. Standing in for Davy Russell, who was hurt on Thursday at Killarney, Cooper was riding Sir Raston for Dermot Weld in the second race on the card, but was one of four riders to come down after Up Monaghan stumbled and slipped up. All the riders got to their feet, but Cooper was shaken and elected to go for checks.
