Hall of Fame jockey Kent Desormeaux, who was arrested on Jan. 28 on charges of domestic abuse and battery in Louisiana, received a continuance of a hearing before Santa Anita stewards on Thursday for a complaint issued by California Horse Racing Board investigators regarding alcohol use at an RV park on Del Mar property last November. Roger Licht, an attorney representing Desormeaux, requested the continuance. A new hearing date has not been set. Desormeaux was cited in the Del Mar complaint for getting into an argument with his girlfriend that drew the attention of security officials. At the time, Desormeaux admitted to consuming alcohol, a violation of an agreement he signed in December 2020 with the Winners Foundation stating he would refrain from “using any mind altering and mood changing substances” from Dec. 14, 2020 through Dec. 26, 2021. The agreement stemmed from an incident at Del Mar in the summer of 2020 when Desormeaux was involved in a dispute at the RV park that led to a 15-day suspension for aggressive behavior and disorderly conduct. Desormeaux was reinstated after completing an in-patient rehabilitation program. :: Get Daily Racing Form Past Performances – the exclusive home of Beyer Speed Figures Desormeaux, 51, last rode on Jan. 23.
