Hildebrandt's of Williston Park sponsored the winning rider in each Triple Crown race, including Garden City's Junior Alvarado atop Sovereignty in Saratoga Springs on Saturday.

Godolphin Racing and trainer Bill Mott decided shortly after the Kentucky Derby to skip the Preakness with Sovereignty and train up to the Belmont, which he won Saturday at Saratoga.

With Long Island-based jockey Junior Alvarado aboard, Sovereignty overtook Journalism in the stretch and ran away to a three-length victory, as Baeza again captured third. Sovereignty, trained by Hall of Famer Bill Mott, takes home $1.2 million of the total purse of $2 million. He finished the mile and a quarter in 2:00.69 and paid $7.00 to win.
