Apprentice jockey Izzy Neale has died at age 22 after suffering a fall during race six at Warren Racecourse on Sunday. Neale was riding Marnoo when she fell 400 meters from the finish line and was airlifted to Dubbo Hospital. Racing NSW and her family confirmed her death in a joint statement on Tuesday, noting she will give others the chance of life through organ donation.
The horse, trained by Kieran Hazelton, sustained an injury and was euthanized, while fellow jockey Diego Montes de Oca suffered a suspected broken foot. A scheduled race meet at Neale's home track in Scone was postponed following the incident.
