Ryan Moore facing another big Test at Newmarket

Ryan Moore is likely to take another big step forward in his rehabilitation from injury after he was confirmed as Time Test’s jockey at Newmarket today.

The three-times champion jockey replaces Frankie Dettori in the Group Two Nayef Joel Stakes after only returning to the saddle on yesterday, his first taste of competitive action since July.

Moore finished third aboard Peterhof in the Arkle Finance Handicap after his surprise return yesterday, the three-times champion rider having been sidelined since July 9 after he suffered a bad neck injury when his mount, Newton’s Law, reared up in the stalls at Newmarket.
