NEW ORLEANS - Dominic Terry, Rachel Alexandra's regular exercise rider, was taken to a hospital Monday morning after going down in a training spill at Fair Grounds, but as of mid-afternoon Monday, Terry appeared to have suffered no serious injuries, according to trainer Steve Asmussen.
Terry was pulling an Asmussen-trained horse up two sets after galloping Rachel Alexandra on Monday when his mount stumbled, throwing Terry to the ground. Terry still was undergoing tests Monday afternoon, but broke no bones, and appeared not to have suffered an injury of consequence.
