Bryony Frost made a winning returned from six months on the sidelines with a victory on Zikany at Goodwood on Sunday.
Britain’s most successful female jump jockey had been out of action since fracturing a vertebra in a fall on April 7 at Aintree’s Grand National meeting.
After landing the Flat race confined to jump jockeys on the Amanda Harwood-trained 14-1 shot, Frost, 27, said: ‘It was a great place to start and an amazing track to ride.

‘It has been a long time off track but the buzz was there. To come back with a winner is absolutely awesome.’
Frost’s first rides back over jumps look like being at Fakenham on Friday where she has provisionally been booked for four mounts by trainer Lucy Wadham.
Frost’s injury came at the end of a traumatic 2021-22 season in which she was involved in BHA disciplinary inquiry which saw fellow jockey Robbie Dunne banned for 10 months for bullying and harassing her in 2020.
Ironically, Dunne’s ban, which had been reduced on appeal from an original 18-month suspension, ended yesterday. He will have his first race rides back at Hereford tomorrow where he has been booked for three mounts.
