Olympian Jonty Evans remains in intensive care after fall

Jonty Evans remains in intensive care in Beaumont Hospital after a fall at Tattersalls International Horse Trials on Sunday.

The 46-year-old rider was attended to by medics at the scene and then taken to Blanchardstown Hospital for assessment before being transferred to Beaumont Hospital later in the day. On Monday it was revealed that he was being treated in Beaumont’s Neuro Intensive Care Unit. There was no further update on the situation yesterday.

Evans was contesting the George Mernagh Memorial CIC three-star event until the fall, which occurred late in his cross-country round on Cooley Rorkes Drift.
