Jockey Toole stable after fall on Grand National day

The 22-year-old suffered bleeding on the right side of his brain when Classic Fly fell at the first fence during the Maghull Novices' Chase and is in the Walton Centre for Neurology and Neurosurgery in Liverpool.

The jockey was found to have movement in his legs when briefly woken from an induced coma on Monday night.

Toole is attached to Charlie Mann's yard in Lambourn and the trainer said yesterday: "There is no more news and, as far as I know, he is still under. There will be no more news until he comes out of that, but he's stable."

A statement from the Injured Jockeys' Fund added: "His parents have been reassured that there has been no deterioration in his condition."

Doctors have decided to wait until this morning to bring round amateur jockey Richard Hawkins after his fall at Taunton on Tuesday. Hawkins lost consciousness when parting company with Tiger Dream in a selling handicap hurdle and is under sedation in Musgrove Park Hospital.

Chris Down, trainer of Tiger Dream and Hawkins' great uncle, said yesterday: "They reduced the sedation this morning and he started to come round, but they thought it would be better to wait until the morning. Everything is going as expected at the moment, so we'll keep our fingers crossed."
