Theriot fine; Velaquez conscious, all extremities moving, vitals OK, taken to UK Trauma center (protocol for Kee) as a precaution.....

This reported by Jill Byrne on TVG.

Just got home and missed the spill. Glad I did by the way some of you are talking about it.

Velaquez and Keeneland just don't get along. Remember the broken collarbone in the spring of '07?

Happy to hear both horses and riders are OK.

Default Johnny V....

Stable, moving arms and legs, tranferred to trauma center for further xrays and treatment. If he did get stepped on, wonder if he may have fractured some ribs or worse.
