Friday 7 August 2015 11:56, UK
Rosie Jessop appears to have escaped serious injury following a nasty fall on the all-weather at Wolverhampton.
The talented apprentice was riding Spirit In Time for trainer Malcolm Saunders in the Holiday Inn Wolverhampton Selling Handicap when the incident occurred.
Having cut out the running for much of the contest, Spirit In Time began to fade inside the final furlong and stumbled and fell crossing the winning line, sending Jessop to the ground.
She was attended to on the track by medics before being taken to hospital by ambulance, where she was conscious and talking.
Saunders said: "She didn't seem too bad when she left the track. She was taken to hospital with a suspected broken collarbone.
