Very sad. Condolences to his family and friends.

There's a picture of him on the video... the only one I've seen.

He looked like a baby, poor kid. He had just turned 20 the week before...

Very sad news.

I thought it was quite touching that they'll have a riderless horse during the memorial.

For anyone interested...

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions should be made to:

The Disabled Jockeys Fund
c/o Chaplain's Office
P.O. Box 88
Grantville, Pa. 17028
