Lauren Keen-Hawkins, an amateur jockey who sustained a serious head injury in a fall at Worcester earlier this month, has been moved out of intensive care.

Hospitalised in Birmingham, the winning rider and member of Kim Bailey's team, was visited by Bailey's assistant Mat Nicholls this week.

Bailey wrote on his stable blog, “Mat went to Birmingham to visit Lauren Hawkins yesterday and was pleased to see how she looked.

“Lauren has been moved out of ICU and into a ward and although still not fully conscious, she does seem to recognise voices and mentioned the odd words.

“She is improving and although she has a long way to go, the signs are positive.

“I must say again how wonderful the Injured Jockeys Fund and their team have been to Lauren's family. Their support has been brilliant and hugely appreciated.”

A winner aboard Dandy Dan (Ire) (Midnight Legend {GB}) at Cheltenham in April of 2022, Keen-Hawkins rode Faerie Cutlass (GB) (Black Sam Bellamy {Ire}) to a second-place finish at Worcester in July, prior to their fall at the same track three flights from home on Sept. 2.
