There were no serious injuries incurred by either horses or drivers following an accident in the third race on Hanover Raceway's Saturday, June 15 card.
Panthermonium, with Jason Ryan up, suffered a broken front hopple hanger and fell. Hurricane Watch, with Paul MacKenzie at the reins, hooked the wheel of Pathermonium and MacKenzie was unseated from the bike.
Both drivers were able to continue on all of their remaining mounts during the card. In fact, Ryan won the eighth race aboard Acefortyfour Lady. Hanover Raceway general manager Scott Price reported that neither of the horses were hurt in the spill.
Driver Samuel Fillion recorded a natural hat-trick of victories during the afternoon. He won aboard Runaway Heiress in the fifth race, This Girl Rules in the sixth race and Rockandrolls Shadow in the seventh race.
Racing resumes at Hanover Raceway on Saturday, June 22 with a 1:30 p.m. post time.
