Grand National winner Ryan Mania set for hospital release
Grand National-winning jockey Ryan Mania is set to be released from hospital on Monday after suffering neck and back injuries in a fall at Hexham on Sunday.
The 23-year-old Scot - who steered Auroras Encore to a famous 66-1 success at Aintree on Saturday - fell in the 15:10 St John Lee Handicap Hurdle.
Mania was airlifted to the Royal Victoria Infirmary in Newcastle.
He will undergo a precautionary MRI scan at the hospital on Monday.
Mania, who was said to be "stable", tweeted on Sunday night: "Thanks so much for all the messages. I'm grand.
"Staying in hospital to get another scan tomorrow then should be home."
He was riding for National-winning trainer Sue Smith on Stagecoach Jasper at the Northumberland track just hours after posing for photographs with Auroras Encore at his stables in West Yorkshire.
He appeared to suffer a heavy kick between his shoulder blades after his horse fell, and was treated for more than half an hour at the track before being airlifted to hospital. He was conscious as he was put into the air ambulance on a spinal board.
His injuries were assessed as "severe/serious" at the course but he was later said to be in a stable condition at the hospital.

Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan
