ANDERSON, Ind. (WISH) – Jockeys avoided injury but one horse was hurt Thursday night when equipment malfunctioned at Hoosier Park.
The incident happened during the eighth race Thursday night. Hoosier Park officials said a tractor that pulls that starting gate malfunctioned after the gate moved 8-10 feet.
