McCoy in the wars

Tony McCoy was left stiff and sore but apparently not badly injured after a nasty fall at Plumpton.

The champion jockey looked to have landed on his shoulder and was kicked as he came off Teeming Rain in the feature At The Races Sussex National.

McCoy had to be helped into the Sussex track’s medical room after being taken off the course by ambulance, but walked slowly out of the weighing room to return home less than an hour later.

“I got kicked everywhere, to be honest, but I’ll be fine,” he said.
