Sackett Astride Fiye Winners RIVER DOWNS, California, Ohio, June 22. — Riding on a high plane of elation, jockey Billy Sackett swept to his fifth victory of the afternoon last Saturday with Galway Boy to atone for an earlier defeat at River Downs, when the gelding stumbled leaving the barrier. Barometro had to settle for third place, behind Doctors Dandy in the Saturday handicap. Sackett had ridden Onilrac, Miss Claudia, Luciete and Bold King to victory in earlier races of the afternoon, but really let out a whoop when he returned Galway Boy to the winners circle. Last year Sackett was leading rider at River Downs with 57 winners, and now heads the list with 19.
