GoFundMe Campaign Launched for Steven Moyer

A GoFundMe campaign has been launched for Steven Moyer, 55, a former trainer and current racing official at Laurel Park, who was seriously injured while doing yard work at his home. Moyer sustained severe burns over 30% of his body in an accident Apr. 19 and is expected to remain in the Intensive Care Unit for several weeks.

A native of Annapolis, Md., he worked for Maurice Zilber in France in his youth, then later for Hall of Fame trainer Nick Zito in Kentucky and was a longtime assistant to trainer Jimmy Jerkens in New York and Florida.

The GoFundMe campaign was set up by Elvis Trujillo Jr., a fellow racing official. The initial goal is $10,000. All proceeds from the campaign will go directly to help Moyer and his family pay for medical bills as well as during his recovery. To make a donation, visit the link here.
