It was declared a no-decision and all one-race bets were refunded.
I didn't see it at the start, but apparantly a jockey fell and was injured in front of the stands after the start of the one-mile race. Into the far turn the horses started slowing down and pulled up in the stretch (might have been gruesome because the camera panned to the toteboard before it would have reached the location of the accident)
It sounded like the announcer said it was Augusto Marin, but I didn't hear it clearly (hope I'm not spreading incorrect information!)
No word on the Boston Globe or DRF sites yet.
