Serious injury for jockey Twiston-Davies
Willie Twiston-Davies faces a lengthy spell on the sidelines after suffering a broken leg at Stratford today.
The young jockey fell from Battlecry when the 10-year-old gelding slipped up in the Bet totepool At totesport.com Hunters' Chase.
He has been taken to Warwick Hospital and will undergo surgery on Sunday evening.
Willie's brother, Sam Twiston-Davies, said: "It's bad news as he's broken his femur in his right leg.
"He's obviously going to be out of action for quite a while, but he's not in too bad spirits, considering.
"He's gone to Warwick Hospital and will be operated on there."
