Jockey Florent Geroux is shifting his base from Fair Grounds in New Orleans to Santa Anita in California, arriving on Thursday and starting rides the next day. The move comes amid slow business at his current track and the injury absence of fellow rider Umberto Rispoli. Agent Matt Nakatani will handle Geroux's bookings in the region.
