Studart recuperating in hospital from shedrow accident

Jockey Maylan Studart underwent surgery Thursday afternoon at North Shore University Hospital in Manhasset, New York, to help mend a broken left leg that was the result of an accident at Belmont Park earlier that morning.

According to her agent, Jose Henriquez, Studart was injured at approximately 9:45 a.m. (EDT) while at the barn of trainer Rodrigo Ubillo.

"I was on a two-year-old in the barn and she was walking by," Ubillo explained. "She went to pet the horse and he reared up and his leg came down on top of her."

According to North Shore spokesperson Kristen Longo, Studart remains at the hospital and is in stable condition.

A native of Brazil, the 20-year-old Studart began riding at Aqueduct last fall and had been named to ride three horses at Belmont Park on Thursday.

Not for nothing but what was she thinking? Did she think the 2 yo was a merry go round horse? I hope she is OK but she should know better. Please no scars!!
