It's just one of those racing accidents.

But I'll tell you this -- there's no way we could be out there racing at those speeds. It was neat to be out there running that fast by myself, but it would be insane to think we could have a pack of cars out there doing that.

Thirty-two jockeys were tested today before racing. They are given something called a no-go test which registers either a green or red light. Richard Quinn was the only jockey to receive a red light. It's a borderline result. A reading of below 17 micrograms is not sufficient to have any effect upon a rider's performance.
