I was I was thrown sideways/forwards at a flat gallop and as I left the saddle I recalled the simple instructions ‘let go of your reins and get your arms up’. I landed on my arm/elbow/shoulder, rolled a couple of times then stood up and walked away. I am sure this basic instruction saved me from a much nastier result. Fall safety training could save your neck or your life.-Jeremy Bayard, polo player
