I have seen a number of bad thoroughbred racing spills over the years, but fortunately never saw one at a harness track, although I heard they do happen. Check out this scary looking accident at Buffalo Raceway this past Friday night. Two drivers were sent to the hospital, one with a broken vertebrae and pelvis, but he won't require surgery and he is expected back in 5 weeks. The Buffalo Raceway web site posted information on the accident, but only told how the drivers were doing and there was no information about the horses involved, which is a bit disturbing.
