Ryan Moore remains unsure when he will return to the saddle after speaking of his frustration at having to miss some of the season's biggest races.
The former champion jockey suffered a neck injury when his mount, Newton's Law, reared up and became trapped under the stalls before the final race on the opening day of the July meeting at Newmarket last week.
Moore's father, Gary, revealed last weekend his son would be out for "more than a month" and while Moore reports his recovery to be going well, he has not yet pencilled in a date for his comeback.
Speaking on his Betfair blog, Moore said: "'It is frustrating to be on the sidelines. There is never a good time to be out injured, but we are into the height of the summer now, with the King George and Glorious Goodwood and the Irish Oaks this weekend, and you never like to miss good rides in good races.
"Everything is fine though, I am recovering well. There were reports in the last few days that I felt like I had been in a car crash, but that isn't so. I really am fine. I just need to take it day by day, week by week.
"When you are talking about your neck, everybody starts to get very cautious. It's understandable. All I want to do is to get back riding, but I realise that I have to give it the time, I have to be 100% before I can go back riding.
"I don't know how long it will be before I can come back, but I will do all that I can to speed up the recovery process. I'm in good hands and we'll be monitoring it week by week"
