NEW YORK (AP) The Ortiz brothers each rode a winner in $100,000 stakes for 3-year-old fillies on Sunday at Aqueduct.
They combined to capture six of the 10 races on the card.
Irad Ortiz Jr. had the better afternoon with five wins. He took the Maddie May for New York breds with Frosty Margarita, beating Katniss the Victor, with brother Jose aboard, by a nose.
