The mishap occurred when Pennblue, the 5-2 favorite in the seven-furlong race for $10,000 fillies and mares, broke down while rallying under Nakatani. She fell, then Showmanship, ridden by Flores, and Articulation, ridden by Lopez, tripped over the 4-year-old Saros filly. Nakatani got up and walked away from the scene. Lopez, examined at the track's first aid station, had a bruised leg, and Flores was taken to Centinela Hospital Medical Center as a precaution, but appeared to suffer only facial cuts. Pennblue suffered a broken left front ankle and had to be destroyed. Articulation and Showmanship were unhurt. This article is copyright 1992 The Los Angeles Times Home Edition.
