Durack Receives Injury Boost Seamus Durack´s rehabilitation from injury has finally been given a boost after he successfully underwent surgery on Monday. The Irish jockey injured his right leg and hip in a fall at Towcester last May and was admitted to the London Clinic to have a rod removed from the femur he fractured. Durack, who has broken a leg three times in four seasons, also had further surgery on his troublesome hip. The jockey has had three operations since his fall and is now confident of making a return to competitive riding by June. 'The operation went well and I´m quite happy,' he said. 'Hopefully there were no complications but obviously you can never be too sure. 'It depends how things go but I´m hoping to be back race-riding in June - I´ll hopefully be riding out earlier than that though. 'I will be seeing a specialist in a month and he will be able to see whether things have settled down or not. 'I´ll then need to go for another couple of operations in March to get my hip washed out but they should only be minor. 'It´s been one thing after another, but hopefully there could now be a bit of light at the end of the tunnel.'(C) PA Sport
