An air ambulance is due at Killarney after Ana O'Brien suffered a fall from ill-fated Druids Cross in the second race on the card this evening.

Jockeys who were out in the parade ring for the third race (at 6.50pm) have returned to the weigh room until the air ambulance has arrived.

Druids Cross slipped up under two furlongs out in the extended mile rated race.

The Irish Coast Guard Air Ambulance arrived at 7.45pm.
