Corey Nakatani, scheduled to handle Corazondelcampeon in the race, was unseated in the paddock prior to the race and was replaced. After an initial exam in the track first aid station, Nakatani, regular rider of Lava Man, the early favorite in the $1 million Pacific Classic on Sunday, was taken to Scripps Memorial Hospital in La Jolla for x-rays of a possibly dislocated left shoulder. Nakatani also complained of sore thumbs.

when they x-rayed him, did they find his brain, or did they only xray the upper part of his body?

If Nakatani didn't have an MRI they never truly considered a separated shoulder as a viable possibility. The stretching or partial tear of the ligaments or joint capsule that can occur with a separated shoulder can only be picked up by MRI. A plan film or Xray is not the most sensitive test for this disorder.

As far as the "sore thumbs" go, my friend IC has it on high authority that Corey may have been trying to save a few bucks, given his performance at the current meet, when he was doing his own flexible sigmoidoscopy and was "unseated" from his next mount.

ouch man!

good one!

actually though, my high authority informed me that he was actually trying to stimulate his brain directly via the sigmoidoscopy.

Bruce Headley has not won a race on Cushion or Poly track and Surf Cat will be a short price coming back from a long lay off ? Doesn't seem right to me.
