So sickened and saddened to hear this.

@DRFGrening
"Caixa Eletronica and Six Drivers suffered fatal injuries in a head-on collision on Belmont training track this morning. Carlos Castro, rider of Caixa, taken to local hospital was conscious complaining of leg pain. Julio Pezua, rider of Six Drivers, is fine."

@DRFGrening:
"Repole: "It's a terrible day for racing. For any horse, it's a horrible thing. When you hear its Caixa Eletronica it's just magnified."

Repole also said he was planning to send Caixa Eletronica to Old Friends in Saratoga when he was done racing."
