Tony McCoy is poised to return to action on Saturday evening at Worcester, the course where he suffered a broken arm on June 18.
He already has two rides booked for German trainer Christian von der Recke - Euro Falcon in the Worcester Maiden Hurdle and Sign Of Nike in the betfair.com Novices’ Hurdle.
The champion jump jockey is back riding out after undergoing four operations on his arm damaged when his mount Kymberlya slipped on the final bend of the Rose Hill School Handicap Hurdle.
“He’s doing well, the scar seems to be coming on well and he’s getting fit and riding out a little bit,” his personal assistant, former jockey Gee Armytage, told the Racing Post.
McCoy is currently trailing Richard Johnson by 18 (54 to 36) in the race for this season’s jump jockeys’ title.
