Hope it was nothing too serious. Bad week for a couple of the best jockeys out there with Tony and Corey both going down. Hope to hear from Tony on Thursday...

The story isn't too clear on what he fractured, but if it was the actual head of his humerous it could be alot worse than some of the other bones.

Good luck to the new daddy...

I sure hope he's okay. He is such a great source of information and entertainment on Steve's program. He is very level headed and insightful in all of what is going on in today's game. This man is an athlete!

From the Philadelphia Inquirer :

"Tony Black, the all-time leading jockey at Philadelphia Park, will be sidelined from six to eight weeks after a spill in yesterday's sixth race at the Bensalem track.

After examination at the Lower Bucks Hospital it was determined that Black had broken a bone in the ball joint of his right shoulder."

Get Well Fast Tony !!!

Again, that doesn't tell too much. Depending on exactly where the fracture is will explain bad the fracture is. Looking forward to the show today to hopefully get an explaination of the injury from Tony himself...
