With 21 wins from 214 starts and earnings of more than $525,000 at Horseshoe Indianapolis, apprentice jockey Micah Meeks earned the 13th annual Juan Saez Leading Apprentice Jockey Award during closing week of the 2026 season at the track.From Northern California, Meeks got her first win at Sacramento in her sixth career start during the summer of 2024. Eventually working as an exercise rider for Eddie Kenneally, she's also ridden in Maryland and Louisiana before moving her tack to Horseshoe Indianapolis this spring.“I have to give a shout out to 'Bugsy,' my agent,” said Meeks about agent Jeremy Acridge, a former jockey in Indiana. “When I got here, he asked for my book. He had Joe Ramos, so it was a pretty easy switch to move to him. He's placed me on some great horses this season and I appreciate his hard work.”Meeks has been commuting the last two weekends to Del Mar and will spend the winter in California. She was presented with the Juan Saez Leading Apprentice Jockey Award by Eric Halstrom, Vice President and General Manager of Racing at Horseshoe Indianapolis, and Rachel McLaughlin, the track's Racing Broadcast Production Manager.The award is named in honor of 2014 Leading Apprentice Jockey Juan Saez, who passed away following a racing incident in 2014.The post Micah Meeks Wins Horseshoe Indianapolis’s Juan Saez Leading Apprentice Jockey Award appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
