Kerrin McEvoy to miss rest of autumn carnival
Kerrin McEvoy’s autumn carnival has been cut short due to a serious injury sustained during Golden Slipper Day at Rosehill.
The unfortunate incident occurred when McEvoy fell from Tintookie in the Group 3 Birthday Card Stakes (1200m), resulting in a fractured vertebrae, specifically his C6.
The fall came after McEvoy piloted the James Cummings-trained Zapateo to victory in The Galaxy (1100m).
Despite being conscious when he left the track, the Melbourne Cup-winning jockey faces a four-week hiatus following an upcoming MRI scan on Monday.
The injury’s progress will then be reassessed before McEvoy can return to racing action.
