Jockey Jamie Spencer may require hip surgery after being taken to hospital following a training mishap on Friday, Racing Post reports.

Spencer was aboard a David Simcock-trained horse when the horse slipped and fell.

“It was one of those unfortunate things,” Simcock told Racing Post. “A horse was walking along and slipped. It looked a very innocuous fall–my wife saw it happen and she said it was like slow motion–but he landed all wrong. We’re so conscious of horses getting fresh and this happened after exercise and he couldn’t have been quieter. Jamie has injured his hip and he may have to have a little bit of surgery. He was in a lot of pain but he was always in good spirits.”
