Question BEL spill: Lakeman 'critical but stable'

Has anyone heard how both Noberto Arroyo & Andrew Lakeman are after the spill in today's 4th race at Belmont?

Ouch. It's unfortunate that DaSilva made those comments on the show today.

Hope the kid pulls through.

He just said that Lakeman shouldn't ride a horse again. Bad timing is all.

DD,

You certainly know more on how to interpret the info than us, so, 'from your mouth to G-d's ears' as we say...

This is terribly tragic, my thoughts and prayers with Lakeman and his family for a full recovery.

I certainly do not want to imply that I KNOW this guys case but hopefully the usual standards of care will apply.

Please understand that I have no first hand knowledge of his moment to moment condition but can hopefully ease a few hearts about the info available.

Do you know for sure what hospital Lakeman is admitted to as the local hospital to the track is not a Level 1 trauma center which is where a case like this is normally taken once triaged appropriately.
