Jockey Valenzuela to Undergo Surgery Today

Jockey Pat Valenzuela, who was kicked by a horse after his mount fell during a race at Santa Anita Wednesday, is scheduled to undergo surgery on broken bones in his left cheek today at Methodist Hospital in Arcadia.

Valenzuela, who also suffered a concussion, was reported to be dazed Thursday, and doctors said they were unsure about the length of his recuperation after surgery.
