Jockey Tyler Baze is expected to be sidelined for a week after breaking his finger when he was unseated by his mount at Del Mar, where he is the second-leading rider.
Tyler Baze is wearing a cast on his broken left pinky finger. His mount unseated him Saturday, then ran off and was scratched from the day’s final race.
Baze was scheduled to ride 8 races Sunday and 8 on Wednesday.
His agent says jockey Tyler Baze will have to give up mounts on Monterey Jazz in the $300,000 Del Mar Mile on August 29 and the $250,000 Del Mar Handicap, a Breeders’ Cup 2009 Challenge race on August 30.
Ron Ebanks hopes jockey Tyler Baze will recover in time to ride Battle of Hastings in the $350,000 Del Mar Derby on September 6.
Baze had been winning at a 17% clip and his mounts have earned more than $1.3 million.
