Jockey Danny Sheehy sustained a broken tibia after he suffered a fall at Dundalk on Friday evening.
The highly-rated 7lb claimerwas taken to Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital, in Drogheda, when he was unseated from the Paul Flynn-trained Mosman in the last race on the card.
The jockey's father, Dusty, said his son had also suffered "very minor" bruising to a lung and "slight concussion".
He added: "It's a shame as he was flying.
"I was with him in the hospital until 4am and he was either going to have a plate put in (to his leg) or just a cast.
"I asked the doctor about a time frame when he might be back and he said between six to eight weeks.
"It could have been much worse."
