We’re sending well-wishes to Australian Olympic rider Stuart Tinney, who has fractured his neck in a fall while training at his home base near Sydney. The fall, which also involved the horse he was schooling (the horse was uninjured), resulted in fractures to the C2, C5 and C7 vertebrae. Eventful Life reports Stuart will be in a neck brace for six weeks and will be sidelined from the saddle for about three months. In the meantime, with the Australian season in full swing, his horses will be placed with other riders to keep them ticking along. You can read more on Eventful Life here.
