The Club’s Chief Medical Officer (CMO) has been monitoring Jockey Jye McNeil’s health status since testing COVID-19 positive on Tuesday (29 November), including ongoing testing throughout the week.
A decision on his participation in the LONGINES International Jockeys’ Championship (IJC) on Wednesday (7 December) has been deferred to the latest feasible timing within the parameters of the rider allocation system for the IJC.
Based on the results to date it has been assessed that Jockey McNeil cannot be declared tomorrow (Monday, 5 December). Jockey Hugh Bowman has been selected to instead participate in the IJC.
