South Australian apprentice Anna Jordsjo, the partner of jockey Josh Cartwright who was charged with reckless riding in the now infamous final event in Adelaide last Saturday, suffered a heavy fall at trackwork at Morphettville on Wednesday morning.
Jordsjo was taken to Flinders  Hospital by ambulance after falling from a horse at first light during a routine trackwork session. She was later released.
The young jockey was apparently kicked when she hit the ground but was conscious when leaving the track.
Jordsjo was stood down from her rides on Wednesday at Morphettville.
Chief steward Johan Petzer confirmed the fall and said that as a precautionary measure Jordsjo would not ride on Wednesday. A decision on whether she can take her mounts on Friday at Port Lincoln will be determined by doctors on Thursday, pending any delayed problems with concussion.
Last Saturday, Cartwright was charged with reckless riding after his ride Senior Council cannoned into Go the Journey and House Of Wax, ruining their hopes of success. He pleaded guilty.
The winner, Murti, was ridden by Jordsjo.
In other news, Lindsey Smith is understandably disappointed his one-time Australian Cup and Doncaster Handicap hopeful Scales Of Justice will remain in Perth this autumn. The trainer is confident  the horse will  make a significant  impact in spring.
Smith said he had visited Scales Of Justice in his spelling paddock and had decided to abort an autumn carnival because the horse was still recovering  from his busy summer campaign.
"I was quite disappointed with how he looked, I just thought he would have done better than that," Smith said.
"Chris Wells [managing owner]Â was with me and we felt he's not ready to come back in.
"But I don't want to go to Sydney, Melbourne or anywhere if the horse is not at its top. He's an  exciting racehorse, they don't come along every day, we will just wait for the spring," he said.
Smith said he was looking at a mixture of handicap and weight-for-age racing for the lightly raced galloper. Â
Scales Of Justice has emerged as one of  the finds of the Western Australian summer carnival and appeared unlucky not to have won the group 1 Kingston Classic after being narrowly beaten by Stratum Star.
