TT Rider Liaison Officer John Barton and Northern Ireland rider Jamie Hamilton have secured additional rides at this year's Isle of Man Classic TT Races presented by Bennetts following the incident in Saturday's Supersport Race at the Ulster Grand Prix involving Keith Amor, Dean Harrison and Dan Kneen.
Kneen was reported to have a broken foot while Harrison sustained a broken wrist, a dislocated shoulder and four broken ribs. Amor was also taken to hospital with fractures.
