Accidente en Carreras De Callabos

I'd prefer these Mexican horse abusers break their sorry drunken necks although it looks like the fellow below may have survived his fall.  Slow mo the link and take a look at technique as this rider hits the ground.

This fellow may have been less fortunate.

Training:
2d day on #17 after a break in riding due to weather.  The young fellow today at the trot was trying to buck me off in the crisp weather.  As my thought process was that he might well win, decided to back off, continue the walk and live until tomorrow.  This is going slow.  I think they'll be a sharp jump to serious training soon. Good news is decent weather through end of year.  #148 was tacked and did ground work on the long lines.  Want to give his wound couple of two three days more healing before getting on.
