Speedy recovery Tony X

[Messenger]

All the best to Tony Xiriha. Tony is just being placed in the air ambulance after a heavy fall at the start of race 4 over an hour and a half ago. Clearly every care is being taken

Amazingly the meeting is going ahead. With not much more than an hour of good light left, we are going to try and fit in 5 races!

Thanks for that quick media release Cody - it provides a little relief
We all know that drivers are unbelievably tough and their first thought is to get out of danger as quick as they can - so when one lies perfectly still and is not even able to be placed in an ambulance for over half an hour it is scary.
I noticed one of the ambos compare the inside of Tony's helmet with another drivers helmet - I think we can all appreciate that helmets save lives (parents take heed when it comes to your kids and your good selves on bikes!)

Yeah hopefully Tony has a speedy recovery, looked very nasty the fall. I had quite a large bet on the fav in that race, was hoping they wouldn't rerun as its odds got into a ridiculous quote. They seemed to run the 5 remaining races in record time.

They ran 5 races in an hour! Somebuddylikeyou had to start those odds Eddie, going on the first take for that race. Cody do not forget to keep us updated on Tony X

Anybody know how Tony is doing?

Both Tony and Anthony are really tough buggers but please take it real easy for a while with that concussion Tony

No problem Kevin. Tony was positive and upbeat. Fingers crossed the tests come back clear and he can get back in the cart sooner rather than later!
