Helmet Cam - Sometimes Outriders Have a Bad Day at the Track

From the outrider:

"Loose horse from behind the gate pushes my horse into the rail. As their legs tangle I'm crushed between the rail and my collapsing pony. As the loose horse returns my Wife and I try a boxing maneuver. When the horse attempts to jump the outside rail my Wife backs off placing it within my reach. Unknown to me my saddle was damaged in our collision with the rail so as I make the grab my right stirrup breaks away. The loose horse was unharmed but my horse suffered a small puncture wound on his left leg. With bute and a course of antibiotics he should be fine. I received a minor concussion, bruised ribs, and a dislocated finger."
