Hayley Turner has vowed to bounce back in 2012 after being ruled out for the rest of the year with an ankle injury.

Turner, who broke her left ankle in a fall at Bath last month, has had her cast taken off but has been forced to amend her comeback plans.

Turner has enjoyed her best season to date with Group 1 wins aboard Dream Ahead and Margot Did, and while the injury is a major blow, she is refusing to let it get her down.

"The whole process has gone very smoothly and has continued to, although I have to admit I've been slightly premature with my dates, I was hoping to return in a month but it's more likely to be three," Turner confirmed on her official website.

"I'm going to continue enjoying my time off and I'll be back in 2012 hungrier than ever."
