Yep, it's insurance through the racetrack. You could try contacting the HBPA office at whatever track the guy rides.....

I know he isn't a Jockey, but maybe you can contact the Jockey's Guild and see if they can donate or refer you do others. Was he injuried on a track or farm?? The facility should pay, unless of course it is a bush track, then they might not pay.

she apparently was injured while exercising a filly that wasn't in her regular string. it's a recognized track, so there should be some support, eh?
