Default Bay Meadows 4th; horse in winner's circle, no jockey

Anyone catch what happened at the finish of the Bay Meadows 4th today?

My guess is that the rider, Frank Alvarado, must have been thrown after the race.....?

After the horses hit the wire, I looked down at my form and then heard the Bay Meadows announcer say, "and that's going to delay the winner's circles ceremony."

(except he said it with a British accent.....:-)...)

I looked up and saw a riderless horse, the winner, meandering on the back stretch. An outrider went up and met the horse....Bold Roar. The horse appeared happy to be met, and went easily to the general area of the winner's circle. But the jockey never arrived.

Anyone get the details?
