Bob Black Jack, who set the early pace, took a bad step near the finish line and was pulled up by jockey Joe Talamo while crossing the wire sixth. Bob Black Jack was removed in the track ambulance.

Hollywood Park’s stewards, acting on information provided by the track veterinarians, reported that Bob Black Jack injured the suspensory ligaments in his left front leg and may also have suffered sesamoid damage. Regardless, his racing career is over. Bob Black Jack, 6, won five races, including the 2008 Malibu Stakes. In an eerie coincidence, Saturday’s start was his 13th, as it was for Irrefutable, who collapsed and died after the earlier Underwood.
