Owch....

Oh, that's brutal. Heck, I wonder how the surgeons sort that lot out? All those ligaments which might also get damaged - that could give him some gyp for a long time, I'd have thought, especially when getting back to some riding.
 
Poor man.

At the other end of the scale, did anyone else admire the way Davy Russell dealt with being shot out of the saddle by Bog Warrior's fall? He went into a forward roll, sprang to his feet, immediately turned to face and dodge the oncoming traffic and then grabbed the reins of his horse before it could run loose.
 
Blimey - no, missed that as I was watching the one in front, but it sounds as if he could work for Circe du Soleil with that sort of agility! (Greeted him briefly at Plumpton a couple of meetings back, and he's far more attractive in the flesh than on tv - plus has a really cheeky twinkle to his eyes! Seemed a very nice chap - driven away in a large black personalised Merc by his own driver, so he's doing pretty well, too!)
