Apprentice rider Jenn Miller has been released from the Winchester Medical Center in Virginia and admitted to the Medstar National Rehabilitation Center in Washington D.C.

Miller, 32, was thrown when her mount Green Time broke down just past the finish line in the second race at Charles Town on Nov. 25. She was kicked in the face by a trailing horse and is recovering from a serious concussion.

Weston Hamilton came into the Monday card at Laurel Park 0 for 9 as a professional jockey. He ended the day 2 for 11 after winning with both his mounts.

Hamilton, 19, is the son of Steve “Cowboy” Hamilton, a winner of more than 1,300 races who is sixth in the fall meet standings at Laurel.

Weston Hamilton rallied I Just Wanna Win from seventh to take race 5 by a neck for trainer Patrick Magill. I just Wanna Win paid $8.60.

“That was the best feeling ever,” Hamilton said.

Frankie Pennington, a four-time leading jockey at Parx, has pretty much recovered from a fall during his Thanksgiving weekend trip to Kentucky and could be cleared to resume riding later this week, according to his agent, Robert Martel.

Angel At War turned in another brave performance at Laurel Park on Monday to remain perfect in six career starts. She has developed into a very nice claim for trainer Michael Gorham, who took her for $40,000 at Delaware Park in August.

Abel Castellano trained Angel At War for her first two races. She won a $20,000 maiden-claiming race in her debut by 11 lengths, then came back to win a $40,000 non-winners-of-two by five lengths.

HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. – Trainer Charles “Scooter” Dickey has been wanting to get Flatlined back on dirt for quite a while. He’ll finally get that opportunity here Saturday when he sends the Grade 2-winning turf specialist postward over the main track in the Grade 3 Harlan’s Holiday Stakes.

Delta Downs has increased overnight purses about 15 percent, according to Chris Warren, director of racing. The new purse schedule was to go into effect with the Wednesday-night card.

A full house is expected for the $400,000 Springboard Mile on Sunday’s closing-day card at Remington Park. The stakes winners Greyvitos, A Different Style, Analyze This Jet, Direct Dial, and Redatory are part of a long list of potential starters for the 2-year-old stakes, which offers Kentucky Derby eligibility points for the first time.

The starting gate will be capped at 12.

“We’re looking at a full field for sure,” said Don Thompson, the Remington stakes coordinator who had a working list of 14 on Monday.

Joe Rocco Jr. is among a host of new jockeys trying to make it in New York this winter. Rocco got off to a good start when he guided Quezon to victory in Saturday’s $100,000 Garland of Roses Stakes at Aqueduct.

Rocco has spent the last three winters riding at Oaklawn Park. He decided to try New York this winter, citing good purses and the opportunity to work with agent Jason Beides.

“I’ve been friends with Jason and wanted to hook up, and it looks like a good opportunity to put a lot money in the bank,” Rocco said.
