Michael O'Sullivan, November 22, 2024

JOCKEY Michael O’Sullivan is in intensive care following a fall at Thurles on Thursday.

O’Sullivan was riding Wee Charlie for Gerard O’Leary and was one of three fallers at the last in the two-mile Racing Again February 20 Handicap Chase, with two other runners badly hampered and unseating their riders.

The rest of the meeting was abandoned after the second race as the air ambulance arrived to take O’Sullivan to hospital.
