Olympic cycling legend Victoria Pendleton came a cropper in her new career as a jockey yesterday.
The 35-year-old took a tumble from her horse Satanic Beat at Newbury races, just half a furlong to the finishing line of the Handicap Stakes for Lady Amateur Riders.
Despite the fall, she got up, mud-spattered but unscathed. She said: ‘I’m fine, I lost my balance and couldn’t regain it. It’s so annoying but won’t put me off.’
