Jose Ortiz will be moving his tack to Gulfstream Park following this weekend, his agent, Jim Riccio Jr., said Thursday. Through the first 18 days of racing this winter at Aqueduct, Ortiz has ridden 13 winners from 73 mounts. He rode last week in Saudi Arabia, booting home two winners and was back at Aqueduct on Thursday. He will ride at Aqueduct through Sunday and begin riding at Gulfstream on Wednesday. “No major reason,” Riccio said when asked why the change in plans. “We feel like we can ride more there.” On Jan. 29, Ortiz is expected to ride Sacred Life in the $1 million Pegasus World Cup Turf and Regal Glory in the $500,000 Pegasus Filly and Mare Turf, Riccio Jr. said. Both horses are trained by Chad Brown. :: For the first time ever, our premium past performances are free! Get free Formulator now!
