Gregory hurt in wreck

 Return Home
January 15, 2005 Send To A Friend  | Print View

Driver Jeff Gregory will be out of action indefinitely as the result of injuries he sustained in an accident in the 10th race at Freehold Friday.





The mishap took place when the leader, Fairy Tale Merit, driven by Yannick Gingras, went offstride and started a chain reaction of interference among the trailing horses. Most notably, Avacal Hope, driven by Gregory, dug his toes into the track and fell. Gregory landed hard on the track and was also hit by horses behind him.



Gregory was transported to Centra State Hospital in Freehold, where he was diagnosed with a broken left hip. Gregory underwent surgery on Friday night and three screws were inserted to stabilize the injury. Doctors have informed Gregory's wife, Helene, that he will not be able to put pressure on the hip for at least six weeks and that his return to driving will be delayed for an indefinite period of time.
