NEW YORK (AP) — Luis Saez rode the winners of both $100,000 stakes for 3-year-olds on Saturday at Aqueduct.
Saez started his stakes double aboard Highland Sky in the Woodhaven on the turf with the colt trained by Barclay Tagg.
He paid $4.40 to win. The time was 1:43.69 for 1 1/16 miles.
One race later, Saez guided Libreta to a 13-1 upset over She's All Ready in the New York Stallion Stakes for fillies.
Trained by Tom Albertrani, Libreta paid $28.40 to win. She ran the 6 1/2 furlongs in 1:18.58.
Both Highland Sky and Libreta earned their first stakes victories, improving their records to 2 for 5.
