Jenny Rightson, a licensed foreperson with trainer John O’Shea, was hit in the side of the head by her horse whilst trying to get it into the wash bay in the pool area at Randwick on Monday morning (16th January).
Jenny has bruising to her cheek area and later complained of some blurred vision so stable staff have taken her to Prince of Wales Hospital for assessment.
[Update at 10am on Monday]: Jenny has been assessed at the hospital and cleared of any injury.
