Only 2 horses finished. Shelter, Krueger, Byron, and Hysell all went down, but Gabe says all horses and riders were up and walking. Took the judges 40 (yes, 40) minutes to decide the exotics would be 57all and 57 allall.

second race finished at 8:28

Dear God - just watched replay
When the lead horse dropped at full speed, and dropped right NOW --- it looked like a bomb went off taking out the field.
-
Shit happens
-
hate to see that but glad all drivers and horses appear okay
cant believe the driver of #2 is unhurt, he went airborne and must have hit hard
on a less important note should that race not have been declared no contest
clearly the drivers on the 5 and 7 were concerned about lose horses etc
clearly the driver of the 7 was not working his horse in the lane , in fact seemed to have a tight hold on him

Pompano screwed my friend I thought he was joking but as it turns out he wasn’t. How can you payout for horses that don’t finish a race and go down in the race which had a wreck. 6th place horse only 6 in it cause the wreck and returned 2.10 to show. Something very crooked just happened. You can’t declate a contest with only two finishers let alone payout shoe tickets to 4 i repeat 4 horses who went down in the wreck
-
It’s not fishy to any of you all that 2 horses finish and they payout

They paid out only to the 2 horses that finished and the exacta. Pretty sure declaring a no contest and refunding all bets is at the judges discretion and the horses that get paid out are part of the rule book.

You must not read the rules

You must not read the rules
The official chart on the USTA site shows it that way so that’s what I’m going off of.
-
you are correct titans
-
So a judge can rule all horses can be declared raced
-
Keep in mind 4 horses went down and all paid show prices of 2.10 and everybody hit the tri that had 57 or 75 whatever it was
-
you are correct titans
Show me lmao

Nice to see the big girl win!

Was in the Paddock when the accident occurred
Matt Krueger taken to the hospital with facial cuts and holding his wrist
Second time Open Skies has fallen during a race this meet
Owner says this was her last race
-
That was ugly
-
Worse than ugly
Latest update is that Krueger has a broken elbow, broken shoulder, and a punctured lung
-
No ifs and or buts
SHOULD BE DECLARED A NO CONTEST
-
If 2 horses finish, it can"t be a no contest
The rest of the equation is beyond my pay grade
-
Let me guess: James Hysell caused the accident?
-
ALWAYS NICE TO SEE SOME OF THOSE RAT BASTARD CHEATIN MOTHERFUCKIN DRIVERS GET INTO A WRECK. WE NEED MORE OF THOSE TO PUT FOLKS IN THE STANDS
-
Don't blame Hysell
Horse went down like she was shot
Second time this meet

A spill in Monday night’s first race at Pompano Park sent driver Matt Krueger to the hospital and resulted in toteboard overload. Although only two horses eventually finished the race after the accident approaching the three-quarters, the race was not declared “no contest” as the track stewards placed all four non-finishers as if they dead-heated for show.
The accident occurred when pacesetter Open Skies, driven by James Hysell, suddenly fell as betting favorite Watchwhatmyfeetdo (Andy Santeramo) and Gemalous (Mike Simons) began to move up on the outside. When Open Skies fell, Follow The Dream (Andy Shetler), Persephonie (Krueger) and De Valeria (Aaron Byron) were directly behind and were unable to avoid contact. Krueger was the only driver to be transported to a local hospital for his injuries.
Krueger, who also works as an assistant to trainer Tony Alagna, suffered a fractured shoulder and elbow that will require surgery, as well as a punctured lung, according to a Facebook posting by his girlfriend Dani Copeland. She also posted that Krueger was awake and alert.
This was the second time this year that Open Skies has fallen during a race at Pompano Park. On Jan. 21, Open Skies was on the outside at the back of the field at the three-quarters when she went down.
As the 3-5 betting favorite, Watchwhatmyfeetdo returned $3.20 to win and $2.60 to place, while Gemalous returned $7.80 to place. All seven horses returned $2.10 to show.
Also, all possible trifecta combinations 5-7-1, 5-7-2, 5-7-3 and 5-7-4 were paid, as were all 12 possible superfecta combinations. The total pool of the race was $1,217, and with all tickets paid, it left a total minus pool of $60, according to track announcer Gabe Prewitt.

Looks like they did something to please the crowd! Instead of giving everyone their money back, big deal, if you bet it you certainly were prepared to lose it, they allowed a lot of people to cash by paying off lots of combinations! I hope they could afford the $60 minus pool! And incidentally, the lead horse caused the problem and should have been dqed and no payoffs with her. Interesting that they payed a mutual involving horses that didn't finish! Maybe unprecedented in racing!

TIP OF THE HAT TO POMPANO HAT FOR PAYING OF ON THE ALL ON THE RACE EVEN THO IT COST THEM A FEW BUCKS tmbz1

Don't blame Hysell
Horse went down like she was shot
Second time this meet
Perhaps but in the few chances I've gotten to witness his driving 'skills' he looked dangerous. That track is loaded with guys who have aged out of competition. It's just a reality that reaction times slow with age. That can be far after age 50 but even then you're just naturally not going to, on average, have as good of a reaction time as someone younger. Sure experience can overcome that negative, but these guys down there lack that as well. *Forgive me if I'm wrong about Hysell and he had a storied racing career. Never seen the guy outside of Pompano in the last 10-15 years?

It would be interesting to see how they allocate purse money.
Only the 2 horses that finished the race should collect.
And do they get 50% and 25% or 66.7% and 33.3%?
They should pay 50% to 1st, 25% to 2nd, and split 25% between the other starters
-
To get purse money you must cross the finish line
-
The offending horse should get nothing!
