This is sad. I hope in a couple weeks they find Rene is going to be ok again. Makes us appreciate what we have.

Agree, very sad. One of the reasons I am not a jockey basher.

Awful. Rene was a leading and very able rider at APX and elsewhere for years. Hope he makes a good recovery considering the circumstances.

An acquaintance of mine, Robert Blanco here in FL suffered a similar fate in a terrible fall many years ago in New Jersey. He has been a jock agent on and off for several years at CRC. Rene won many races for me at APX, which has over last many years been a great track for me.

I wish him well--his family too.
