Racing:Kieren Fallon looks set to ride at Newbury this afternoon after escaping serious injury at the Berkshire track on Friday.
The six-times champion jockey was taken to the Royal Berkshire Hospital after being kicked in the build-up to the Bridget Maiden Fillies' Stakes.
Fallon was about to take the mount aboard Mick Channon's Ayam Zainah when Alioonagh bolted, causing mayhem in the paddock.
The Matthew Salaman-trained daughter of Giant's Causeway upset several of her rivals and caused Fallon's mount to kick out in alarm and strike the jockey.
The 45-year-old fell to the ground and lay at the side of the parade ring surrounded by black screens while being attended to by medical staff.
Initial fears of a break to his leg proved unfounded as precautionary X-rays came back clear and he left hospital last night.
Channel 4's Morning Line programme reported Fallon's agent Dave Pollington had been in touch and that the rider hoped to take up his booked rides on Saturday afternoon, which include Lady Of The Desert in the Dubai Duty Free Stakes.
Fallon is scheduled to partner the unraced Momkinzain for Channon in the racinguk.com Maiden Stakes at 4.15.
A statement on the the trainer's website said: "Kieren Fallon is due to take his rides today at Newbury which is great news for the yard."
Pollington said later: "He's been for a swim, he's not in any pain and he's on his way to the races.
"It's remarkable really, but he says he's not in any pain, there's just bruising, so hopefully he can kick on."
