Race 7 turning for home. Bedlam broke out.

2 horses euthanized. (prelimnary report)

2 Jockeys Ambulatory to area hospitals.

1 more injured en route.

Bad bad ugly spill.

Horse's going over frontwards. I saw I think Taylor Hole,, Catapulted about 10-12 feet in the air.. Thrown a good 15 feet off his Mount went the horse went HEAD OVER and Taylor was "sprung" skyward.

And for what it's worth it's a good thing they wear those safety vest.

Your welcome. I like the Del-Mar Crowd. You guys have a nice Board. Good luck and Enjoy the Del_mar meet.

I used to Live in Carlsbad.. My Office was in Kearney Mesa.

I drove PCH everyday....Through encinitas, and down past Del-mar into La Jollla. Beautiful ride...Beautiful track. Been there bunchs.

I saw a thread on DRF where people were asking if Del-mar was better than Sartoga. Niether. They are both equally great.

Although I did learn yesterday that Sports Illustrated Named Saratoga one of the TOP TEN sporting destinations of the 20th century.

Drop a note to PA sandy and he will Take the DMTC off your users name. He did this for a bunch of members that played for other teams and had the BOARDS initials ....as a tail. He'll take it off no problem.
