Jockey Kazushi Kimura remains sidelined with swelling, at least through Monday, after being injured in the starting gate prior to last Thursday's fifth race at Santa Anita, said agent Brian Beach Sunday morning.
Kimura was aboard Rogue Son (Misremembered) for a starter optional claimer Jan. 16 when, at some point during the loading, his leg got caught between his mount and the side of the gate. The chart notated that Rogue Son was a trainer scratch. Kimura had been booked on eight mounts Sunday, including the GIII Las Cienegas Stakes aboard Ma Rae's Girl (Mendelssohn) for Doug O'Neill. Mike Smith picked up that mount.
