Nicola Wilson won a silver medal with the Great Britain team at the London 2012 Olympics
British rider Nicola Wilson is in a "stable" condition in hospital after a fall in the cross-country event at the Badminton Horse Trials.
The European individual eventing champion, 45, fell from her horse JL Dublin near the end of her round.
Organisers said Wilson was transferred to Southmead Hospital "for trauma scans and further investigation".
"The horse JL Dublin has returned to his stable and is comfortable," added the statement.
On Sunday her team posted a further update, external to say she had "a comfortable night in hospital and is conscious in a stable condition awaiting further tests" and thanked people for messages of support.
Wilson, a GB team silver medallist at the London 2012 Olympics, won European individual and team gold with JL Dublin in Switzerland last year.
Badminton, one of Britain's two five-star events along with the Burghley Horse Trials, has returned this year following a three-year absence.
