You keep mentioning Steve Byk, as if he was somehow the reason this has been misreported by some...there were lots of tweets flying around, including from a lot of jockeys, that Flores had died....BEFORE Byk had said anything...
yes there were many rumors the only one I read was the racing nation post. There were many on here also.

Truly saddened by this news as Parx is pretty much in my back yard. I've seen him ride live many times over the course of the past number of years and have even been by the winners circle to congratulate him with a fist bump along with friends of mine. RIP Jose ...prayers go out to family as well.
