Two horses were injured at Clinton Raceway on Sunday afternoon.
According to a spokesperson for the venue, during the pre-race warmup, 'Read the Proposal' collided with 'Where To Buddy Boy,' who was on the track preparing for Race 6.
Both horses sustained significant cuts as a result of the collision, but have since returned home and are expected to make a full recovery.
The drivers, Dan Clements and Gerald Manneke, who were involved in the incident, were reported to be stiff and sore but otherwise in good condition and neither required hospitalization.
Clinton Raceway said it extends appreciation to the attending track personnel and veterinary team for their swift response and care.
