By Tom Luicci/Monmouth Park

OCEANPORT, N.J.— Jockey Samy Camacho was sent to Monmouth Medical Center in Long Branch by ambulance for evaluation X-rays following a spill in Sunday’s fourth race at Monmouth Park, according to track Medical Director Angelo Chinnici.

Camacho, the track’s second-leading rider with 29 wins, went down in the five-furlong grass event for 2-year-olds when his mount, Bingo’s Girl, appeared to clip heels with Gold Alliance entering the turn. That resulted in Momma Kim and jockey Jorge Gonzalez, unable to avoid the fallen horse and rider, going down as well.

Gonzalez reported no injuries.

Camacho was excused from the remainder of his mounts on the 10-race card.
