Jockey Laurent Beaucamp was in critical but stable condition Tuesday morning in the intensive care unit at Saint Barnabas/Monmouth Medical Center in Long Branch, N.J., following a Monday riding accident at Monmouth Park.
Beaucamp, 41, was aboard Irresistible Me in the sixth race at Monmouth. He was attempting to come through along the inner rail in upper stretch of the first-level optional-claiming sprint on turf when his horse appeared to hit and then jump the temporary rail. Beaucamp was thrown hard to the ground and Irresistible Me then tripped over the rail and fell.
