Replacement riders are required for early favourites Quackerjack and Sweet Victory at Rosehill on Saturday after booked jockey Josh Parr succumbed to a knee injury.

Stewards advised on Friday that Parr is unable to fulfil his riding engagements at Rosehill due to the injuries he suffered in a race fall at Warwick Farm on Wednesday.

Parr sustained a medial tear to his right knee when he fell from his winning mount On Her Word after the winning post at Warwick Farm.

Quackerjack (Race 5), a winner at Randwick last Saturday, and Sweet Victory (Race 7) are both trained by Mark Newnham.

Parr was also booked for Gentle Persuasion (Race 2); Yogi (Race 6) Tony Nicconi (Race 8) and Dalmatia Prince (Race 9)
