Four TT riders remain in hospital following crashes during this year's races.

Steve Mercer is in a stable condition after colliding with a course car during practice week, while Kamil Holan remains in Noble's Hospital after fracturing his ankle, but is due to return to the Czech Republic shortly.

Sidecar racer Tony Baker is comfortable in a Liverpool hospital, and due to be moved to a hospital nearer his home.

His passenger, Fiona Baker Holden, is expected to be discharged from hospital shortly.

Meanwhile, Dom Herbertson has been released from Noble's after suffering a rib fracture during the Senior TT, while Bjorn Gunnarsson was released on the same day after an accident in the same race.

TT organisers confirmed further updates will only be issued once patients are discharged or their condition changes.
