Very sorry to hear that. RIP, Mr. Flores.

And Twitter's most vociferous, unhinged jockey critic has been strangely silent the last couple of days.

I hate to see this, ever.

There is some solace in that his organs may help another live.

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.
