Overview
- The fall occurred on Sunday at the Warren Shire Cotton Cup when Neale’s mount knuckled over near the 400m mark, leaving the 22-year-old unconscious and airlifted to Dubbo Hospital.
- Neale died after being treated at Dubbo Hospital and her family released a statement announcing her passing and confirming organ donation.
- The horse Neale was riding, Marnoo, was euthanised on veterinary advice after suffering a near-foreleg injury at the scene.
- Fellow jockey Diego Montes de Oca was dislodged in the same race, treated for soft-tissue injuries to his foot and later discharged from hospital.
- Racing NSW abandoned the remaining race at Warren, postponed the Scone meeting and has opened a formal inquiry that will examine the circumstances of the fall and on-course responses.
