A hand injury could prevent Jim Cassidy reuniting with Melbourne Cup runner-up Maluckyday should connections decide to run in Saturday's Chelmsford Stakes at Warwick Farm, reports the Sydney Morning Herald.

It says: Prepared by Team Hawkes, Maluckyday is also an acceptor in the Makybe Diva Stakes at Flemington on Saturday. ''We will make a decision tomorrow night,'' Michael Hawkes said at Canterbury yesterday, where Cassidy rode in the first race before being replaced on four other rides.

Cassidy hurt his left hand in a barrier-trial mishap at Warwick Farm on Friday and aggravated it at Canterbury. Stewards said Cassidy's ''swollen and bruised'' hand would be assessed by doctors.
