Champion jockey Hugh Bowman has suffered a broken finger this morning which will require surgery.
Bowman came off during routine work on Tuesday and immediately went to hospital.
He was treated at Prince of Wales Hospital for the break to the little finger on his right hand.
Racing NSW’s Dr David Duckworth said the star jockey would undergo surgery on Tuesday afternoon.
Bowman will miss at least a week of riding but hopes to be back Saturday weekend to ride Happy Clapper in the G1 George Main Stakes and The Everest contender Osborne Bulls in G2 The Shorts.
