Flores allowed to ride at Hoosier

Jockey Vicente Flores, one of 15 jockeys banned from riding at

Hoosier Park, has been reinstated to ride at the Anderson,

Indiana, track.

The decision to allow Flores to ride came following a phone

call from the jockey to Hoosier Park President and General Manger

Rick Moore. Flores told Moore that he has difficulty hearing and

didn't understand what was taking place when the jockeys refused

to ride on Friday. Unlike some of the other riders who had to be

escorted from the track by policemen, Flores left voluntarily.

Flores rode during Hoosier Park's Saturday night program and

won the 2ND race with SENORITA ZIGGY (Senor Speedy).
