Barry Geraghty is well on the road to recovery after breaking his right arm in a fall at Market Rasen last month.

The top Irish jumps jockey sustained the injury when taking a tumble from Cernunnos, for his boss JP McManus, at the final fence when holding every chance in the Betfred Summer Plate.

He returned home to Ireland where he had surgery after initially being treated in England.

Irish Turf Club senior medical officer Dr Adrian McGoldrick said: "He had a plate inserted.

"I saw him on Wednesday and he's making a very good recovery.

"He's in very good form, but t here's no date for a return yet."
