Wagers placed for Martin’s cause can be any denomination from any racetrack. A special Quarter Horse feature race on Sunday’s card also will be named in Martin’s honor.
Martin, a seven-time winner of Quarter Horse racing’s All-American Futurity, was paralyzed from the neck down when his mount fell after the finish line and threw the rider to the ground on September 2 at Ruidoso Downs. He currently is undergoing a costly rehabilitation process.
