Highly-rated Limerick jockey Wesley Joyce
LIMERICK jockey Wesley Joyce is hoping to make a return to race riding next season.
The highly-rated Moyross jockey suffered a number of complex injuries, including damage to his larynx in a fall at the Galway Racing Festival last July.
Nineteen-year-old Joyce was riding Red Heel for Michael Mulvany in the Arthur Guinness Irish EBF Corrib Fillies Stakes, a seven-furlong Listed event, when the horse stumbled at a road crossing and unseated him.
Joyce is now on the road to recovery after 6 weeks in hospital and the exciting young horseman is aiming to return next season.
The 7lb claimer has ridden 20 winners in his young career to date and had partnered six winners this season before the fall at Ballybrit in July.
Incredible ❤️
