Sad statistic - " According to the Jockeys’ Guild, Saez is the 153rd jockey since 1940 to be killed in a race in North America. He is the first to lose his life since Jorge Herrera died in July 2012 at Pleasanton in Northern California." |
Very tragic news. My sympathies to the Saez family.

That is absolutely brutal. Deepest condolences to the Saez family.

According to the article, Jeremy Rose was originally scheduled to ride the horse Montezuma Express but did not show up. Malcolm Franklin then was booked to ride but took off his mounts in the later races because he felt sick. Saez then took the ride late. Also, contrary to Indiana Grand's original release, Montezuma Express was not euthanized and fortunately is back at his Churchill Downs barn this morning with only cuts but otherwise seems to be fine. Horrifically tragic. |

Jockeys to honor Juan Saez in the Breeder's cup.
"The Jockeys' Guild says jockeys will wear a patch during Breeders' Cup weekend with the initials of Juan Saez on their pants or boots as well as a black band to recognize him and other riders who have been killed during a race or as a result of race-related injuries. All jockeys will be asked to donate at least one losing mount fee on Oct. 31 or Nov. 1 to a fund established to help Saez's family."
