When sport is put back into perspective
The day started mightily.
The dashing young rider won the first race. As always he would hardly have passed the winning post before rushing off to take his ride in the second race on the card. His mount fell at the first fence in that race. Seriously injured, he was rushed to Cork Regional Hospital. He died there at the beginning of this week. Jack Tyner, son of trainer Robert Tyner, was just 17. May the Saints have mercy on his sporting spirit and console his grieving family.
