LEADING jockey Nico de Boinville has been rushed to hospital after a horrific first-flight fall at Plumpton.
Nicky Henderson's No1 jockey who rides the likes of Constitution Hill and Jonbon was treated on the track.
But he was transferred to the on-course ambulance and whisked off for treatment after the terrible spill.
De Boinville, who had been riding Henderson's 3-1 favourite As The Fella Says in the third race on the card, was said to be conscious.
The first hurdle of the race was bypassed second time round – with de Boinville on his way to Royal Sussex County Hospital in Brighton.
The jockey is one of the biggest names in racing and Henderson's go-to man for all his big rides.
Although he has suffered two terrible spills already this season – both aboard Constitution Hill.
The formerly unbeaten superstar went down in March's Champion Hurdle when he looked to be cruising.
And he incredibly repeated the feat at Aintree's Grand National meeting in his defeat to Willie Mullins' Lossiemouth.
