Lucy Alexander has been discharged from hospital with a facial injury after she fell from a horse at Musselburgh on Saturday.

Alexander was admitted to the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh when she parted company with the James Ewart-trained Rocklim, who was fatally injured, at the second flight of a handicap hurdle.

Nick Alexander, the jockey's father, said: "She's fine, but she might have a fracture on her face and may have to go for further assessment on Monday.
