Frankie Dettori has said he is taking time to recover after suffering broken ribs in a car crash.
The horse racing great posted a photo from his hospital bed alongside his wife Catherine Allen on Thursday as he thanked people for their support.
"Thank you, everyone, for your kind messages and support," said the former champion jockey.
"A huge thank you as well to the fantastic emergency staff who looked after me.
"I'm very sore and have a few broken ribs, so I'll be taking some time to rest and recover.
"I look forward to seeing you all again soon.
"Frankie x"
It comes after Dettori's management confirmed earlier on Thursday that he had been taken to hospital following the crash.
H Talent Management said the Italian jockey's car was hit on the rear passenger side by another vehicle, "causing it to spin and flip".
The crash is thought to have happened near Six Mile Bottom near Cambridgeshire on Wednesday evening.
In an earlier statement, the company said Dettori had sustained "several broken ribs and a broken thumb".
It added that his injuries were still being assessed and that he remained in hospital for further scans and observation.
The statement said his focus was on "resting and recovering".
It is not the first time Dettori has survived a serious crash.
In 2000 he was injured when a light aircraft carrying him and fellow jockey Ray Cochrane crashed and burst into flames shortly after taking off from Newmarket.
