ARCADIA, Calif. – Jockey Edwin Maldonado has returned to Southern California after riding the first month of the Oaklawn Park meeting in Arkansas. On Saturday, Maldonado has one mount on a 10-race program – Sandbed in the sixth race, a maiden claimer for sprinters. He had one mount on Friday’s eight-race program. “It will take time to get things going,” he said Thursday. At Oaklawn Park, Maldonado had a respectable record of seven wins from 51 mounts, but he said he sought a return to California. Maldonado, 35, had his best season in 2013, winning 190 races. His mounts earned $8,316,642. In September 2016, Maldonado was injured in a spill during training at Del Mar. He returned to riding in early 2017 and had 65 wins last year.
