Robert Alner (trainer of The Listener) is still in a critical condition in hospital this evening after the car he was driving left the road and hit a telegraph pole. The accident happened around 5am on Thursday morning as Alner was travelling to catch a train to France where he was due to inspect a horse with a view to purchase.
This evening he was due to undergo surgery to realign a broken bone in his neck, which was suffered in the crash. This was meant to take anywhere between three and five hours.
He is a very underrated trainer over here and fingers crossed he pulls through with no lasting effects from this accident.
