The Daily Telegraph are reporting that she was unconscious for fifteen minutes after the accident, but was revived by NSW Ambulance paramedics soon after.

A Careflight speciailist trauma doctor arrived at the scene to ensure she was in a stable condition.

A Channel 9 spokeswoman has said, “Tracy had a horse-riding accident this morning and was taken to hospital by CareFlight.

“The ACA team and everyone at Nine wish her a speedy recovery.”

She will, understandably, not be hosting the program tonight.
