(bbc.co.uk) – Brian Toomey, 26, suffered severe head injuries in 2013 when his horse fell at Perth racecourse.

He had been given just a 3% chance of survival and spent 157 nights in hospital but, almost two years after the accident, he has been relicensed.

Toomey, who has ridden 49 winners since 2008, was initially placed in an induced coma before undergoing surgery to remove part of his skull to relieve pressure on his brain.

He returned to riding out – sitting on and managing a horse – before being passed fit to ride competitively again by two neurosurgeons.

“Just in surviving and overcoming all that I have been through I feel I have won the biggest and most important race of my life, and anything else is a bonus,” Toomey added.

“I’m going to take my time and work on my fitness before taking my first ride. That’s the next target to aim for and I’ll give it my all to get there.”
