Looks like kid on the front jammed the breaks pretty hard. No reason for this

7th race - Anthony Napolitano on the 2 sitting second on the rail first turn started looking like he was going to climb over the horse in front, the 6, just coming around the turn.  A Nap jerks his right line hits the 3 Narina Hanover in the right breast with his right elbow at the same time the 3 ridden by Bath is about to climb over him, and then does.  27 1/5th first quarter.  Pile up ensues.   91z.his   
It's Official!

Following up....Jim Pantaleano, aka Pants had other drives on the card he was taken off.  You can clearly see him get squashed like a sandwich and go straight airborne on the 4 before video went out of the action frame.  The 3 collapsed below him, and then the 1 was waiting behind him like a wall, thus the launch.

All the other drivers, either raced after, or drivers Bath, Chellis, and Taggart didn't have drives later in the card so their status is unknown. 

Horses' status unknown.

Equipment status, I surmise, some of it,  pretty fucked up.   ;D

Nothing on the track social media, other SM or news, and if it was there it eluded me.  Must be counting their slots take, and thoughts and prayers bs.

Keeping a good thought.

Jeez, Jimmy got run over at The Meadows not too long ago too. Having a bad year or so with accidents.

He also was in a bad accident at Freehold 9 years ago. Any update on the condition of drivers and horses?

  • Calhoun: Thx I'm leaning to the 5 there.  Those CD/GP full field races look the best on the page. 1/2 length from being a G3 winner.
