David Casey & Shay Barry were taken for x-rays at Mayo General Hospital in Castlebar following separate incidents at Ballinrobe on Wednesday evening.
Casey suffered his injury when he was unseated from the Tom Taaffe-trained Sir Whinstone on the way to the start for the opening 2m maiden hurdle on the card.
Although able to walk unaided back to the weigh room, Casey complained of pain to his left arm and was sent for an x-ray.
As a result of Casey's injury, Shay Barry came in for the ride on Fair Dilemma in the 2m4f handicap hurdle but his mount took a tired fall at the last hurdle.
Following the fall Barry was thrown into the path of the Jim Dreaper-trained Shernaz, who was unable to avoid the stricken jockey, landing a heavy blow.
Barry was subsequently sent for x-rays with a suspected rib injury.

Thats why i think jump jockeys should never be suspended.

I'd say Shay Barry is glad the protectors are compulsory as it was a hammer blow to the chest he got.

Their time in the saddle is so short,the risks they take so great,the injuries received so severe,there has to be another way.
