Hollie Doyle To See Specialist After Wolverhampton Fall

Classic-winning jockey Hollie Doyle is set to see a specialist after sustaining an arm injury in a spill at Wolverhampton on Monday.

Doyle was aboard the 4-7 favourite The Perfect Crown (Ire) (Hallowed Crown {Ire}) at Dunstall Park when her mount broke down on the final turn. The winner of the G1 Prix de Diane with Nashwa (GB) (Frankel {GB}) last season, the reinswoman will not take up her engagements at Kempton on Tuesday.

Doyle, who is the retained rider for Imad Al Sagar's Blue Diamond Stud, said, “Dr. Jerry Hill [chief medical adviser for the British Horseracing Authority] has got me in to see a specialist today to get my arm checked out, so I will know more after that.

“I can't bend my arm at the minute and I'm trying to get into Oaksey House today hopefully to see if a physio can sort it out.”

The first foal by European Champion 2-year-old and World Champion 3-year-old St Mark's Basilica (Fr) (Siyouni {Fr}) was born at Kiltinan Stud in Fethard, Co Tipperary, Ireland on Jan. 9.
