Hall of Fame driver Cat Manzi and the 2008 Rising Star Jason Bartlett were injured in an accident in the sixth race Preferred Pace at Freehold Raceway on Saturday, Oct. 24.

The mishap occurred when the Steve Smith-driven Allamerican Idol made a break while on the lead at the three-quarter pole. Bartlett who was immediately behind the leader with Fireintheshark, could not avoid hooking wheels with the breaking horse and Manzi, driving Royal Man and next on the rail, could not avoid either horse.

Manzi and Bartlett were unseated and thrown to the track. Both drivers were then transported to the Jersey Shore Medical Center. Bartlett was examined and released with a sprained ankle while Manzi was being treated for a possible broken vertebrae of the lower back. None of the horses involved were injured.
