Commission Reports On Jockey Death At Cumberland
Maryland racing official Joseph Flanagan released findings from an inquiry into the spill that killed jockey Benny Leggett at Pairgo track. Alpine Boy, a 12 year old gelding, is blind in the right eye yet can see with the left. Two veterinarians said the horse was fit to race before and after the incident. The horse had been barred in West Virginia, a fact not reported to Maryland. Flanagan urged stronger inter state reporting and said the commission would review the case in Baltimore Monday. Dr. W E Trussell said Alpine Boy was barred at Charles Town track for a vitamin deficiency causing blindness spells.
