This came remarkably close to resulting in a ban on starting gates. That jockey is lucky to be alive.

Whoa. This is certainly a race where you need to see a replay rather than just look at the chart. If I just looked at the chart, I don't think I'd be able to wrap my mind around "raced between the parked starting gate and the outside rail in midstretch."
