Stop digging. Should not have apologised and now this
"Everything had gone very well. Just down to the last I set him up for a nice stride. He jumped it very well and just landed a little bit flat," he told At The Races.
"As we left the last I just squeezed him. It looks as if he's had a bit of a buck and has dived out to his right and I've fallen off. That's the long and short of it.
"It's no secret I'm very active in my lower leg and it's one of those. I've been squeezing him all the way round as I've moved my lower leg back to squeeze him to go forward, whether I've pinched him or he's not liked it, it's set him off for whatever reason.
"It's something I'm looking into in my riding. It's something we can improve and be a better jockey for. It's disappointing it's happened. I apologised and hopefully I can go forward."
The Southwell incident came hot on the heels of Cheltenham on Friday when Twiston-Davies was unshipped after Politologue ducked to the right before the final flight when about to make his challenge.
He said: "All the years I've been riding - I've fallen off on the Flat before when slipping on a bend - but never from the same incident twice in three days and you do start to think things through and say 'what am I doing and why is it happening?'.
"It is disappointing. You do start to question your riding. It's something I've been looking at, but whether I will be able to change it now I don't know.
"It is something I will be looking at if a horse is winning well, I'll be digging my heels in rather than trying to squeeze him trying to go forward.
"I want to try to improve so these things don't happen in the future.
"I'm in a very lucky position, I ride for the champion trainer. I get to ride lots of good horses and I'm going to Catterick tomorrow to ride an odds-on shot (Warriors Tale) in a novice chase.
"You always get these chances again. It's the ones you don't get back you regret. I want to improve so these things don't happen again."
