Jockey Villa-Gomez scores milestone victory

Posted: Tuesday, May 12, 2009 3:40 PM

Jockey Huber Villa-Gomez earned his 1,000th North American victory on Monday when Sneak a Cold Treat posted a 1 1/4-length victory in the third race at Thistledown.

Villa-Gomez made his North American riding debut in 2000 and had compiled $11,299,626 in purse earnings through Monday. In 6,584 North American starts, he also has 888 runner-up and 855 third-place finishes.

Villa-Gomez has tallied 13 wins in stakes races. He earned his co-most lucrative victories in two stakes races worth $75,000 each—the Decoration Day and Hancock County Handicaps. Both races were run at Mountaineer Race Track.

Villa-Gomez won the 2007 Decoration Day Handicap with Bold Passage and guided Gabrieles Princess to victory in the 2004 Hancock County Handicap.
