Denis O'Regan expects to be sidelined for three weeks after breaking his collarbone at Aintree on Sunday.

The jockey, best known for riding three-time World Hurdle winner Inglis Drever, fell from Astarador in the Radio City 96.7 Handicap Chase.

"We'll have to give it three weeks and see where we are," said O'Regan.

"It's disappointing, but we'll just keep going forward and I've had a good run of things up to now. Hopefully I'll soon be back on the road again."

O'Regan came off at the second fence and had to be treated at the course for some time, before being taken to hospital.#
