Recommended Posts

Leading driver Sarah O'Reilly faces an extended spell on the sidelines after a trackwork accident at Ashburton Raceway yesterday.

She is currently in hospital awaiting surgery on her arm and has a broken cheekbone and jaw.

"The horse in behind me jumped into my cart," she says, "and it crushed me."

"It was no-one's fault. They were young ones."

O'Reilly sent an image of her x-ray showing her broken arm.

"I'm not sure what the recovery time will be."

After being the country's top junior driver in recent years, O'Reilly is now in her first year as an open driver.

She is currently 12th in the drivers' premiership with 32 wins in 2024.
