BROKEN COLLARBONE.
JOCKEY INJURED SCHOOLING. OVERDRAWN COLLIDES WITH ANTRIM BOY. (By Telegraph.—Special to " Star.") DUNEDIN, Thursday. At Wingatui Antrim Boy (W. Cooper) was given a round on-the flat at threequarter pace, and then joined Overdrawn (L. Hunt) in a school over four flights of small hurdles. They ran together, going fast all the way until approaching the last hurdle, where Overdrawn was inclined to shirk it. Kicked into the fence he ran to th e inside, and the pair collided just as they were landing. The impact dislodged both riders. Cooper was winded for a few moments, but Hunt received a broken collarbone. The schooling showed both horses to advantage until the accident occurred, and the time (1.17 2-5) from fence to fence showed that they were travelling fast. Antrim Boy is a good and this effort was easily Overdrawn's best to date. Neither horse was hurt.
