Mania hurt in Hexham fall

An air ambulance was called to Hexham as Grand National-winning rider Ryan Mania had anything but a dream return to action when he suffered a nasty fall.
The Scotsman, who steered Auroras Encore to a famous 66-1 success at Aintree on Saturday, was linking up once again with trainer Sue Smith in the St John Lee Handicap Hurdle. However, his mount Stagecoach Jasper came down early on the final circuit.
Some 25 minutes after the race the 23-year-old Mania was still being attended to on the track by medics. With the covers up, there was a delay to racing following the arrival of the air ambulance.
