Are they okay in Hong Kong??
They're not giving many updates on the horses, but I'm pretty sure at least 2 were fatally injured. Sounds like the jockeys involved are at least conscious/speaking. I don't think I've seen a worse spill.
I don't recommend watching the replay, but Danon Smash somehow avoided being part of the carnage by turning into a steeplechaser. Thank goodness he is okay.
Update: Zac Purton, Yuichi Fukunaga and Lyle Hewitson are out for the rest of the card, but no news on their injuries.
Update 2: Amazing Star, whose breakdown caused the whole incident, was euthanized. Naboo Attack is being evaluated, but it sounded grim.
