Jockey Eduardo Pinto, 18, made his second career ride a winning one Friday, driving the maiden Tayyara home in the second race for his first victory.
Pinto, a native of Venezuela, raced second with the 10-1 shot through an opening quarter before drawing away down the stretch after dueling with Miss Unconcerned. Tayyara, a 3-year-old Florida-bred Khozan filly owned by Soldi Stable LLC and trained by Jose D'Angelo, covered the six furlongs for $12,500 maiden claimers on the Tapeta in 1:12.91 in her third career start. She returned $23.60.
“He's been galloping for me and other people,” D'Angelo said. “He's done a good job and you never know how someone is going to do unless you give them a chance.”
