Amateur jockey Lauren Keen-Hawkins, who sustained a head injury in a fall on Sunday, has been moved out of intensive care, although she has yet to regain full consciousness. An update on the condition of the rider was provided on Thursday by Kim Bailey, her employer, with the trainer also paying tribute to the work of the Injured Jockeys Fund. Keen-Hawkins, 22, was taken to hospital in Birmingham on Sunday after being knocked unconscious in a fall from Faerie Cutlass at the third-last in the 2m4f handicap hurdle at Worcester. “It’s positive news,” said Bailey. “She was still unconscious on Wednesday but she can obviously hear and is saying the odd word. She has a broken rib but we won’t know any more than that
