I just saw that on DRF myself. I hope the jockey is OK. I was in a crowded simulcast parlor, so we did not hear any announcement and there was no explaination given or typed on the screen. All we knew was the "no contest" status and our bets refunded.
When they showed the rider at the gate as part of the steward's view, we did not assume that he didn't get up or that he was still there when the horses came around. We could not see any of that from the monitors. It looked like a normally run race.
