Apprentice jockey Alexis Centeno celebrates his first graded stakes victory aboard Brickyard Ride in the San Carlos Stakes
Fresh off a huge win versus California-breds, Alfred Pais s homebred Brickyard Ride made short work of open company in Saturday s Grade 2, $200,000 San Carlos Stakes at Santa Anita in Arcadia, Calif., as he made every pole a winning one in covering seven furlongs in 1:21.51. Ridden by apprentice Alexis Centeno and trained by Craig Lewis, Brickyard Ride, a 4-year-old colt by top California-based stallion Clubhouse Ride, was never threatened as he won by four lengths.
