Jockey Daniel Muscutt was left with a broken bone in his neck, several broken vertebrae and a broken rib after a sickening fall at Chelmsford on Thursday evening.
Andy Waitt, clerk of the course at Chelmsford, said on Friday: “Unfortunately, Dan Muscutt has broken a bone in his neck, three in his back and a rib.
“He’s stable in hospital and will spend a couple more days in there for assessment, but they have no plans to operate on him.”
