Racing: Suspected broken wrist puts Cassidy in doubt

Jim Cassidy's chances of riding at Saturday's Golden Slipper meeting hang in the balance after he injured his wrist in a freak fall at Randwick yesterday.

Cassidy was taken to Prince of Wales Hospital with a suspected broken right wrist when he fell from Andretti after the 2-year-old knuckled over as he was returning to the enclosure after the listed TL Baillieu Stakes.

Cassidy has bookings in three of the group one races on the programme - grand stayer County Tyrone in the BMW, Stormhill in the George Ryder Stakes and Lectrice in the Coolmore Classic.
