Cieren Fallon is going through the nightmare scenario of having spent the past four days in quarantine in a Paris hotel room to ride in Sunday’s French 2,000 Guineas only to hear on Wednesday morning that his intended mount The Lir Jet is out of the race.
The two-time champion apprentice is now waiting to hear whether he can fly back to Britain on Wednesday evening, but he has already missed high-profile rides at York s Dante meeting including Oxted, who finished in the Group 2 Duke of York Stakes.
Fallon, who is second jockey to The Lir Jet’s part-owners Qatar Racing, had flown out to France after riding at Lingfield last Saturday to spend seven days in a hotel room in keeping with local Covid-19 regulations in order to ride Michael Bell’s stable star at Longchamp.
