Injured Bolger denied Tolworth chance

Trainer Laura Mongan has been left searching for a replacement rider for Alsadaa in tomorrow’s Anglo Irish Bank Tolworth Hurdle after regular partner Colin Bolger suffered an injury at Lingfield.

Bolger has struck up a fine relationship with the five-year-old – runner-up to Jack The Giant in the valuable Ladbroke Hurdle last weekend – but was hurt when unseated from La Cortezana at the first flight of the lingfieldpark.co.uk Juvenile Maiden Hurdle.
