Default P Val carted off at Delmar

P Val was carted off today at Delmar with a knee injury. Too Bad he was just starting to find a nice rhythm. Third jockey at the meet to be injured. must be the synthetic surface

Considering the race was on the turf, I think you're right.

Valenzuela injured

Jockey Patrick Valenzuela recorded his ninth win of the meeting in Thursday’s first race, but suffered a knee injury three races later that forced him to take off his final four scheduled mounts on the card.

Valenzuela strained his knee trying to pull up Big Wig past the finish line in the fourth race, a one-mile turf run. Big Wig, a 5-year-old gelding trained and part-owned by Doug O’Neill with Paul Reddam was reported to have a possible right front leg injury and was vanned from the track for X-rays
.

He is still listed on 24 mounts 8/13 - 8/15 (1 of them an AE)

Completely wrong .

P Val's horse, Big Wig finished second eight days ago and pulled up badly in the gallop out .

He comes back eight days later and has to be vanned off with an injury .

Apparently P Val was trying to pull up an injured horse with bad action when he strained a knee.

Race was on turf as well, and the horse didn't look good post race eight days ago for Doug O'Neill and Paul Reddam.--THAT Doug O' Neill ...

Nothing to do with the surface--somebody was running a questionable horse.--
