Tony McCoy is set to return to competitive action in the middle of next week.
The 19-times champion jockey was initially sidelined for a short spell after taking a crashing fall from the Rebecca Curtis-trained Keep Presenting at Worcester on October 9, but aggravated his injuries in another spill at Exeter earlier this month.
He rode at Chepstow the following day, but decided to take a couple of weeks off to fully recuperate.
McCoy is, however, set to be back in the saddle ahead of next week's high-profile Hennessy Gold Cup fixture at Newbury, with the meetings at Fontwell and Wetherby on Wednesday under consideration for his return.
His personal assistant Gee Bradburne said: "I've spoken to him very briefly and he's been for an X-ray this morning.
"Everything was good and he hopes to be back next Wednesday."
Among McCoy's rides at Newbury next weekend is Jonjo O'Neill's World Hurdle winner More Of That in the Long Distance Hurdle
