The Hong Kong Jockey Club confirms that jockeys Yuichi Fukunaga, Lyle Hewitson and Zac Purton who were dislodged during the LONGINES Hong Kong Sprint are conscious and have been sent to hospital for further medical assessment.

Further update will be provided in due course.

Given the accident and the developing circumstances, the decision was made that the trophy presentation of that race and the remaining HKIR races should be scaled down, including not playing national anthems.
