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)
