Jockey Jack Dace is recovering in hospital after a horrific fall at Brighton on Sunday, with his family reporting he appears to have escaped serious injury despite the dramatic incident that tragically claimed the life of his mount.
The 5lb claiming apprentice was knocked unconscious when his horse, the Amanda Perrett-trained Virtue Chastity, clipped heels approximately four furlongs from the finish line during a 10-furlong handicap race.
