Nick Scholfield taken to hospital after heavy Cheltenham fall from Last Royal

Nick Scholfield was taken to hospital after he took a heavy fall at Cheltenham's April Meeting.

The jockey came off Last Royal at the final flight of the Safran Handicap Hurdle, won by 16-1 shot Wbee. Sent off the 5-4 favourite, Last Royal led the field at a good pace, but he was weakening at the time of his departure.

The market leader, a full-brother to dual Unibet Champion Hurdle heroine Honeysuckle, was eventually led back to the racecourse stables.
