A familiar face at the Irish national meetings, Plant – who was transported to Craigavon Area Hospital – wrote: ‘Collapsed lung, fluid on the chest, T8 (vertebrae) facture, seven broken ribs, one fractured shoulder blade, but had the best time ever at the Tandragee 100. Thank you to everyone involved. I'll be back next year’.
Praising the ‘flying doctors’ medical team, Plant said:
‘Owe these guys today, amazing professionals. Thank you’.
Meanwhile, Nagle is described as stable in the Royal Victoria Hospital.
The organisers on Saturday said none of the competitors involved had sustained life-threatening injuries.
