Bryony Frost is taking a break from race-riding to let her injuries heal and return fighting fit for the next season.
The Grade 1-winning jockey learned she had fractured a vertebra following an MRI scan. Frost, 27, suffered heavy falls at Ayr and Aintree a week apart earlier this month. The sportswoman was taken to hospital near the Grand National venue after she came off the Paul Nicholls-trained Thyme White.
It meant she missed the rest of the meeting and has not been in action on the racecourse since. Frost, also recovering from a shoulder problem, said: "‘As many of you will have seen by now, I’m not going to make it back to race at Sandown at the weekend, and just how long I'll be sidelined for is still up in the air.
