Royal Ascot-winning jockey Martin Harley who broke his neck in a sickening race fall in Australia last month has vowed to be back in the saddle by the end of March.
Harley suffered fractures to his neck, shoulder blade and ribs and a small bleed on the brain but left hospital after two days and has now embarked on his recuperation with his head and neck supported by a halo.
The 33-year-old, who won the King’s Stand Stakes on Goldream in 2015, moved from Newmarket to Brisbane, Queensland last year under a three year sponsorship.
