Jockey escapes serious injury in spill January 08, 2009 3:51 PM NEW ORLEANS Jockey Francisco Torres escaped serious injury when a filly he was riding collapsed after a workout at the Fair Grounds.
Derek Ducoing, Torres' agent, says Torres might not ride Friday but plans on riding Saturday. Torres was riding Peaceful Forest, a 3-year-old maiden filly, who was working in company with 4-year-old gelding Show the Way for trainer Mark Frostad. They were galloping together on the backstretch, near the half-mile pole, when Peaceful Forest went down. Information from: The Times-Picayune, http://www.nola.com |
