Barry pelvic fracture confirmed Shay Barry, who received a heavy fall from Hairy Molly's fatal final fence exit at Killarney on Thursday, was confirmed to have fractured his pelvis, despite having being sent home from Tralee hospital with severe pain, several hours after the heavy fall. Barry was sent home from the hospital at 2am on Friday morning despite complaining of severe pain in his lower abdomen. However, having sought a second opinion, a fracture of his pelvis was confirmed. Dr. Adrian McGoldrick, Turf Club Medical Officer, yesterday expressed his dismay at the decision to send the injured jockey home from hospital, saying "whether the x-rays were clear or not, he should not have been discharged from hospital in that much pain." "I was very concerned, given the severity of the fall. He has a fracture but will not know how long he will be out for until an MRI scan."
