NO SUPPORT FOR INJURED FEHILY

Noel Fehily will miss the plum ride on next week`s Coral Eurobet Welsh National favourite, Moral Support, after breaking his collar-bone in a fall at Ludlow today.

Riding Real Estate for Jeff King in the Shukers For Landrover Novices` Chase, Fehily took a crashing fall at the first fence.

Trainer Charlie Mann, who was at Ludlow, reported: 'He`s broken a collar-bone and he`s been taken to hospital in Swindon.'

With the fall certain to rule Fehily out of the action for at least a couple of weeks, Mann is already weighing up the options for Moral Support.

'You know what they say about the best-laid plans! But he`s a straightforward sort of ride and I`ve one or two irons in the fire for him,' he said.
