Then the jerk in the studio mentions something about closers doing well at TP and doesn't say anything about the spill. I hope all involved are ok, but it certainly didn't look good. You would think that an all horse racing channel would at least mention horses and jockies that are involved in a spill. Then again it is TVG.
I happened to have TVG on for a late race at Turf Paradise Saturday. I had a wager on the Baymeadows 8th, and the Oak Tree 10th.

I'm not positive we're talking about the same race, but if so, in the race I saw at Turf Paradise the TVG announcer did mention the spill. It just wasn't right after the race concluded. I remember them saying they would try to get more information as they could, but I had moved on to other things before I ever heard.
