Lorena Velazquez Rodriguez’s Rylees Boy confi rmed once again that he is a true 440-yard yard stakes star when

he ran down Llano Teller to win the Grade 1, $353,300 Bank Of America Challenge Championship on Saturday night at Prairie Meadows.

The Bank of America Challenge Cham-pionship was the spotlight race during the stakes-fi lled 11-race night of racing, featur-ing the championship races in each division of the Bank Of America Challenge Champi-onship.

In the Bank Of America Challenge Championship, Rylees Boy and Llano Teller were the two favorites and they each ran their races.

The gritty quick-starting Llano Teller was able to get his usual professional start under G.R. Carter Jr. and probably would have been the winner if the race was at 400 yards, instead of the classic quarter-mile distance.

The late-running Rylees Boy got an adequate start and was the best horse when it counted in the fi nal half a dozen strides. He rolled past third-place fi nisher Ethics Aside and then caught Llano Teller for an expand-ing one-half length victory.

Rylees Boy, under Ramon Sanchez, was timed in :21.508 for his 12th win from17 starts at 440 yards.

Now a member of the Paul Jones stable, Rylees Boy joined the Jones barn for his pre-vious start, the Go Man Go Handicap at Los Alamitos, when he had no chance at the win after being knocked around at the start and then was checked by Sanchez.

Still going strong as a 7-year-old, Rylees Boy won the Bank of America Sunland Park Challenge for the third-straight year in April by two lengths to earn his berth in the Bank Of America Challenge Championship. The winner’s share of $161,000 pushed his career earnings to $946,166.

Rylees Boy now has an invitation to the Grade 1, $750,000 Champion Of Champions over 440 yards at Los Alamitos.

Llano Teller, owned by Wootan Racing with Reed Land and Cattle Company, has been a Grade 1 force since early in his juve-nile season. The 4-year-old gelding was in peak form during his sophomore campaign

at Ruidoso Downs when he won the Grade 1, $703,000 Ruidoso Derby and the $1.3 million All American Derby. The gelding took the Bank of America Remington Park Chal-lenge to gain a trip to Prairie Meadows for the Bank Of America Challenge Champi-onship.

A son of Teller Cartel, Llano Teller has earned $1,757,3471, mainly on the strength of those rich derby wins at Ruidoso Downs.

The M and D Racing’s Ethics Aside bore out at the start, however ran a very strong race to fi nish third. The well-bred son of Mr Jess Perry came off back-to-back stakes wins in the Bradford Stakes at Hoosier Park and the Bank Of America Prairie Meadows Chal-lenge.

In the Grade 1, $125,000 Merial Distaff Challenge Championship over 400 yards, Robert Gentry’s homebred Fredaville showed her class with a very professional victory.

Fredaville, the even-money favorite, started sharply from the outside post posi-tion and then steadily increased her advan-tage under G.R. Carter Jr. for the three-quar-ter length win in :19.980.

Bobby Barnett and Tommy Hays’ Painted Sable was second by a neck over Hugo Bar-ron Sierra’s Corona For you fi nished third.

A daughter of Mr Jess Perry, Freda-ville is having a great year as a 6-year-old. Last spring, she won the Merial Remington Park Distaff Challenge and was second in the Juno Request Stakes. She then moved to the Juan Aleman barn at Los Alamitos and won the Me-rial Los Alamitos Distaff Challenge and was third behind the sharp 3-year-old Flame N Flash in the Grade 1, $150,000 Mildred Vessels Handicap.

Fredaville raced out of the Cody

Joiner barn at Prairie Meadows.Runner-up Painted Sable has put

together a solid 4-year-old season after fi nishing second in the Firecracker Derby at 3. This year she won the Hill Country Stakes at the Gillespie County Fair and then joined the Ed Hardy barn at Prairie Meadows and won the Merial Prairie Meadows Distaff Challenge.

In the Grade 2, $150,000 John Deere Juvenile Challenge Championship, Horton Racing’s Heroes Heart scored for the local horses with a three-quarter-length tally over a surprising Brace For Bernal.

Heroes Heart got a superb start under Stormy Smith from the middle of the start-ing gate and then just kept his momentum going to the fi nish line to win in :17.488 for 350 yards as the 5-2 favorite.

From top, Heroes Heart, Stormy Smith up; All About Larry, Sal Martinez up; Ultimate Wave, Esgar Ramirez up; Senor Fish, Jose Montoya up; and Hastabealeader, Clyde Smith upPhotos by Coady Photography

Noel Prieto’s Brace For Bernal, over-looked at 32-1, ran a strong race from the inside post position for second while RC Had To be My Day fi nished third, one-half length behind Brace For Bernal.

Heroes Heart, racing for local trainer Charlton Hunt, pushed her record to three-for-three at Prairie Meadows after being winless from two starts at Reming-ton Park. The Valiant Hero fi lly won her John Deere Prairie Meadows Juvenile Challenge trial in her local debut and then stepped forward to take the fi nals by one-half length as the 5-2 favorite. She was timed in :17.621 for that win.

Brace For Bernal is a horse to keep an eye on in future races, especially at this level. The Luis Villafranco-trained son of Furyofthewind came to Prairie Meadows from Oklahoma where he was second in the Cherokee Stakes at Fair Meadows and then, in his most recent start, won the John Deere Will Rogers Juvenile Chal-lenge.

In the Grade 1, $125,000 Red Cell Distance Challenge Championship, Diane Heath’s All About Larry humbled the fi eld while pulling away in the stretch and then being geared down to win by fi ve-and-one-quarter lengths and establish a new 870-yard track record.

All About Larry raced the 870 yards in :44.581 with Sal Martinez aboard to erase the previous track record of :44.799 set by Stone E Motion.

Steve Holt’s two-time champion distance horse De Passem Okey made a late run for second, however never got close to threatening All About Larry. Salvador Pimienta’s Emperor Valerian fi nished third.

The John Stinebaugh-trained All About Larry is in the hunt for champion distance horse honors. Two starts before he won the Master Salls Handicap at Ru-idoso Downs by eight-and-three-quarter lengths and then destroyed the fi eld by nine lengths in the Red Cell Lone Star Park Distance Challenge. He also won the SunRay Park Marathon in May.

De Passsem Okey, trained by Rodney Reed, won two 870-yard stakes last spring at Remington Park and was then soundly defeated by All About Larry in the Master

Salls when he fi nished fi fth as the 3-2 fa-vorite. He bounced back from that eff ort to go from gate-to-wire to win an allow-ance race at Will Rogers Downs.

In the Grade 2, $200,000 Adequan Derby Challenge Championship, Junior’s Quarter Horses’ Ultimate Wave looked like a horse with a bright future after he pulled away to win as the 13-10 favorite under Esgar Ramirez.

Ultimate Wave was timed in :19.563 for the one-and-three-quarter length win over a solid fi eld.

Mr Taka B was second by neck over a dead heat for third between Huckleberry Mojito and A Game Dame.

Making just his fi fth career start, Ultimate Wave got a sharp start out of the gate and raced with his rivals for about 200 yards. The Wave Carver son then showed he could become a premier member of his division when he pulled away for his third career win.

Ultimate Wave made just one start at two — a fourth-place fi nish at Arapa-hoe Park — and came back this year to win each of his two starts at the track outside of Denver. He won his Adequan Arapahoe Park Derby Challenge trial and then stepped up a 4-5 odds to take the Adequan Arapahoe Park Derby Challenge by more than two lengths.

Mr Taka B, a gelding by Feature Mr Jess, has always shown promise for trainer John Stinebaugh while racing in New Mexico. He had a close third-place run in the Sunland Winter Futurity and was third in the Adequan Ruidoso Downs Derby Challenge.

In the $75,000 Pfi zer Starter Allow-ance Challenge Championship for horses who have raced for a $5,000-claiming tag, Miguel Banuelos’ Senor Fish got his nose in front at the right time to win a very tight fi nish.

Senor Fish, ridden by Jose Montoya, raced the 350 yards in :17.664 to win by a head over JA Sundance and it was a neck back to third-place runner Zoomfection.

A 4-year-old gelding by Fishers Dash, Senor Fish won a pair of starter allowance races before his Pfi zer Starter Allowance Challenge Championship win and now has six wins from eight 2012 starts.

In the $25,000 Markel Stakes for 2-year-olds at 350 yards, Gloria Myers’ Hastabealeader asserted himself in the fi nal 100 yards to score his second stakes win of his fi rst year of competition with a three-quarter-length decision.

Craig Stein’s Pt Special Feature was second and Sergio Maldonado’s RC Straight Runaway was third in a tight photo for second.

Hastabealeader was timed in :17.871.The Robert Don Johnson-trained

gelding by Hasta Be Fast has been on the board in eight of nine starts. He raced to his other stakes win when he won a minor futurity at Canterbury Downs in August and raced in the Markel Stakes after fi nishing fourth in the John Deere Prairie Meadows Juvenile Challenge.

In the $25,000 AQHA Members Stakes for older fi llies and mares, Mary Louise Pursel and Terry Pursel’s Cruzin The Wagon got a quick start out of the gate under Stormy Smith and then went on to a one-half-length win over Dont Look Ethel.

Cruzin The Wagon, the odds-on favorite, was timed in :19.758 for her sixth win from nine 2012 starts for trainer Brent Clay.

Wave Corona fi nished third, more than two lengths behind Dont Look Ethel.

A sophomore daughter of PYC Paint Your Wagon, Cruzin The Wagon won the Oklahoma Derby and the Jack Brooks Stakes at Remington Park back in the spring and was second in the Keokuk Stakes at Prairie Meadows earlier this fall.

Matt Whitekiller’s Dont Look Ethel was the solid 3-2 second choice after win-ning her three previous starts, capped by the Prairie Meadows Bonus Challenge.

In the $25,000 John Deere Stakes at 400 yards for 3-year-olds, Broken Arrow Farms’ The Sunday Assassin made a big late charge to run down Wave Goodbye Baby with a :19.809 time and win by one-half length.

Hugo Barron Sierra’s Wave Goodbye Baby maintained second by one-half length over Mr Corona Blue.

The Sunday Assassin, a son of FDD

Dynasty, had been on the board in four of fi ve starts this year and raced to his second win of the year in the John Deere. The Wayne Garner-trained gelding had been competing on the Oklahoma circuit and won a $25,000 optional-claiming race two starts ago. He was then third in the Adequan Will Rogers Derby Chal-lenge.

In the $25,000 Farnam Stakes for older horses at 440 yards, Larry Toombs’ Barackazoom repelled a bid by Mary Passmore Kirby’s Jesse In Town to win by a neck and break a streak of fi ve-straight second-place fi nishes.

High Rate Of Return was two lengths back in third.

Barackazoom, 4-year-old gelding by Azoom, covered the quarter mile in :21.636 with Mark Luark aboard.

The Amber Blair-trained Baracka-zoom had been on a runner-up roll with his second-place fi nishes including the Black Gold Derby and the Adequan Will Rogers Derby Challenge this fall at Will Rogers Downs.

In the $25,000 Nutrena Starter Allow-ance at 350 yards, Oscar Andrade’s Lord Azoom under a vigorous ride Alejandro Luna pulled away to win by one length and secure his fi rst win since taking a $16,000 allowance race back in June at Indiana Downs.

Lord Azoom was timed in :17.745 for his third win from nine tries this year. The Ricardo Martinez-trained gelding also has three second-place fi nishes.

Back in March at Los Alamitos he won for a $5,000 claiming tag and racing at that level made him eligible to com-pete in the Nutrena Starter Allowance.

Zevo Powered fi nished second and Ima Rare Gambler fi nished third.

In the $67,500 Terrace Hill Stakes Iris Cartelsbadnews won by 1 ¼ length. The 5-year-old gelding by Agouti earned his eighth career victory for breeder and owner Warren Garrels, taking the 400 yards in :19.686 under jockey Berkley Packer. Iris Cartelsbad-news extended his win streak to four with earnings of $181,328. Shake Em Streakin fi nished 2nd and Wheres Your Wagon came up 3rd.

Zia Park contested 11 stakes races for New Mexico-breds worth a total of $1.9 million as part of the richest state-bred

card in the nation on Sunday. Trainer Joel Marr won three of the New Mexico Cup races, including a race named for the greatest horse he had ever trained. Marr’s Iplaytricks was an 11-1 upset winner in the 1-mile, $170,360 New Mexico Cup Peppers Pride Champion-ship for fi llies and mares, a race named for the New Mexico-bred mare Marr had trained to a perfect 19-for-19 record. The trainer scored a one-two with On Down the Road and Cross Chris Run in the 1-mile, $180,480 New Mexico Cup Rocky Gulch Championship. And on a day full of upsets, Marr also saddled 23-1 longshot Attitude E Racer to win the $170,720 New Mexico Cup Sprint Championship. “Noth-ing will compare to Peppers Pride,” Marr said, “but this ranks right up there, especially when you’re not expecting it.”

Following Peppers Pride’s second victory in the New Mexico Cup Fillies and Mares Stakes in 2008, the race was named in her honor. With the same breeder (Joe Allen), sire (Desert God) and trainer (Marr) as Pepper’s Pride, Iplaytricks and jockey Ken Tohill passed 1-5 favorite and defending champion Rose’s Desert in the homestretch for a one-length win. Despite Rose’s Desert’s formidable record of six wins in eight career starts coming into the race, Iplaytricks had defeated her once before in the Sydney Valentini Handicap at Sunland Park in February. “I’m not going to call it a real longshot because Iplaytricks was the last to beat Rose’s Desert,” Marr said. “She’s had some maturity problems, but she ran her race today and we got lucky and won.” Their head-to-head record is now 2-2.

After scoring a 10-1 upset in the New Mexico Cup Rocky Gulch Championship with Cross Chris Run last year, Marr fi nished fi rst and second this year as On Down the Road and jockey Ry Eikleberry overtook Cross Chris Run and jockey Tohill at the top of the stretch for a 1 3/4-length win. The Marr pair held off even-money favorite Smash Dancer, who

fi nished third. “That’s a good feeling because then you know you’re OK,” Marr said about the stretch duel between his stablemates. “Todd [Fincher’s] horse was looming. That scares you. We just had the jump on him.”

In addition to Marr’s 23-1 longshot win with Attitude E Racer and jockey Tohill in the New Mexico Cup Sprint Championship, sev-eral other horses tested the limits of Zia Park’s tote board lights. The 35-1 maiden Dashin Ace won the 400-yard, $293,550 New Mexico Classic Futurity for 2-year-old Quarter Horses for replacement jockey Jose Montoya and trainer Michael Joiner. Even more surprising was 80-1 Midnightlowdown, who won the 6 furlong, $140,600 New Mexico Cup Champi-onship for 3-year-olds as the longest shot in the fi eld of 11 for jockey Duane Lee Sterling and trainer Gerald Marr, Joel’s father. Thermal won the 6 furlong, $140,000 New Mexico Cup Juvenile for 2-year-olds at 11-1, and his trainer, Todd Fincher, also fi nished third in the race with favorite Kiss My Hennessy and fourth with Rio El Diablo.

NM Cup 870 Championship, $140,240, 870 yards, 3-year-olds & up

Kc Royal Flush (jockey Brian Theriot/trainer Dominic Duree) snapped the six-race win streak of Rollickin Red (Casey Lambert/Todd Fincher). At 7-1, Kc Royal Flush de-feated 3-5 favorite Rollickin Red by a neck in 46.577 seconds. In the process, Kc Royal Flush also beat three horses that had previ-ously fi nished ahead of him in a Zia allow-ance race this month.

Namehimastreaker NM Cup QH Cham-pionship (RG1), $170,360, 440 yards, 3-year-olds & up

Third time was the charm for 8-year-old Miracle Snow (G.R. Carter, Jr./Wesley Giles) as he won the Namehimastreaker in his third at-tempt in the race. Miracle Snow, the 5-2, sec-ond choice defeated 3-2 favorite Fury of the Storm (Esgar Ramirez/Jaime Dominguez) by a neck in 21.686 seconds. Fury of the Storm

By Robert Geller

What a GEM!

It’s not every day that horses get better with age, but that was the case with Awesome Gem.

Like a fi ne red wine, the striking chestnut uncorked some of his

greatest stretch runs as he got longer in the tooth, his 2010 Grade I Hollywood Gold

Cup victory as a 7-year-old arguably his most memorable. His veteran years led to an assault of Grade 3 classics such as the

Lone Star Park Handicap, the Berkley Handicap and the Longacres Mile, a race on which he left an historic mark as runner-up in 2009, winner in 2011 and a luckless third on Aug. 19 this year, which proved to be his

fi nal appearance.Trainer Craig Dollase can hold his

head up high knowing that Awesome Gem closed out his illustrious career on a good note with no stone left unturned. Bought by West Point Thoroughbreds for $150,000 at the Barretts March 2-year-olds in Training Sale, the son of 1998 Breeders’ Cup Classic winner Awesome Again out of Piano, racked up earnings to the tune of $2,881,370 with 11 wins, 15 seconds and seven thirds in 52 starts.

Awesome Gem had been expected to tackle the Ralph M. Hinds Pomona Handicap at Fairplex Park in September but it was not to be.

“Over the years, I had always given him little breaks to keep him fresh and competi-tive. He has always been a very, very sound horse. There was slight infl ammation in his left front leg, the suspensory blew up a little bit and because of that we decided to stop on him.”

At 9 years of age, Awesome Gem had done everything asked of him and more. Neither the ownership syndicate, managed by Terry Finley, nor his trainer can harbor any regrets. Their stable stalwart retired happy and sound. Craig is yet to feel any sense of void since he still attends to him every day.

“We are letting him down slowly. He canters around the track twice a day and is comfortable in his stall. I’d like to think he will become a barn pony, in the same way a horse like Lava Man did. Hollywood Park has always been home to him.”

So much so that on Nov. 24, Hollywood Park will be dedicating its race day to Awe-some Gem whose half-length defeat of Rail Trip in the 2010 Hollywood Gold Cup ranks as a career highlight. The victory was a refl ec-tion of the guts and perseverance that the horse embodied, confi rming a depth of tal-ent that could catch any of the big boys off

guard. Richards Kid was a perfect example, placing third that day before his repeat win in the Grade 1 Pacifi c Classic at Del Mar that August; a race in which Awesome Gem was making steady gain until stopped in traffi c in deep stretch.

“You look at his races and you’ll notice he was always moving forward. A little luck in running could help but even after a setback in a race, he would build his momentum again. Awesome Gem was the type of horse that would raise his level to the opponents he was running against and would give you everything he had.”

His wrangling as an 8-year-old with top older horse Game On Dude was further testa-ment to his competitive spirit. In the spring of 2011 in the Grade 3 Lone Star Park Handi-cap, both he and Flat Out were left in his wake, then in the fall, Awesome Gem came within a stride and a half from catching ‘The Dude’ in the Grade 1 Goodwood Handicap.

It was in the Pacifi c Northwest that sum-mer that Awesome Gem turned in one of his most sizzling performances, overcoming the outside post-position and 122 pounds to down local legend Noosa Beach in the 76th running of the Longacres Mile. This was a race connections had been trying to win for some time, having experienced close calls with Tropic Storm, a gallant third in 2008 and Awesome Gem himself a game runner-up to Assessment in 2009.

Two years on, the contrast was marked. His quick getaway from the gate not only refl ected an ability to show speed but also the dexterity of regular rider David Flores. His deep knowledge of the horse remained a key ingredient to their ongoing success. Awesome Gem’s explosiveness from the quarter pole and sustained power down the stretch were undeniable that afternoon. West Point Thoroughbreds fi nally had their hands on the Longacres Mile trophy and northwest fans were left wondering how Craig Dollase and his team were able to pro-duce an even better galloper at age 8 than the one they had seen at 6.

“Taking the blinkers off of him was a big part of the equation. He did respond particu-larly well to the gear change. He really did get better with age. I would have to say that 1 mile was his pet distance. That’s another reason why we would keep coming back for the Longacres Mile. And don’t think he couldn’t show speed when he needed to.”

From 5-1/2 furlongs on turf as a 3-year-old to the 1-3/4 miles of the 2010 Breeders’ Cup Marathon, Awesome Gem tried it all. Of his four Breeders’ Cup appearances, two in a Breeders’ Cup Classic (2007, 2009) and

What a GEM!


the other in the (2008) Breeders’ Cup Mile (turf ), it is easy to forget that as a 4-year-old, he closed into third place in the slop in the Classic at Monmouth behind Curlin and Hard Spun, outperforming his 28/1 odds.

Yet, Awesome Gem had been running well all that season, even if it appeared that he was straddled with a serious case of second-itis. From July through September, his late-rallying style earned him a series of runner-up checks in Southern California with progressively narrower losses, beaten 1 length in the Grade 2 San Diego Handicap, a half-length in the Grade 1 Pacific Classic and merely a nose in the Grade 1 Goodwood Handicap.

It was a pattern that appeared to balance out over the years, such that upon retiring, the combined total of his first- and second-place finishes was 26, accounting for exactly half of his lifetime starts. Awesome Gem closed out his career as the highest-earning active racehorse in North America. Not sur-prisingly, he accumulated a huge fan base.

“People would come and stop by the barn just to see him. He is such a lovable horse, gracious, not a mean bone in his body. People would come up to me and say, ‘Hey, aren’t you the guy who trains Awesome Gem?’ It was neat.”

“We always knew he was well above average. The things that stood out for me straight away were his head carriage and his intelligence. They seem to go hand in hand. Awesome Gem was the poster child for head carriage. My dad (Wally) would call it the look of eagles.”

Craig cannot speak highly enough of his father, who retired as a trainer himself a year ago, having enjoyed a star-studded career and is now based in Kentucky. The LA area has always been home to Craig, who has shown time and again that his solid founda-tion from an active racing family has enabled him to be a force on the circuit and within the industry at large.

At age 27, Craig trained Reraise to a slashing win in the 1998 Grade I Breeders’ Cup Sprint at Churchill Downs. Craig was the youngest trainer ever to win a Breeders’ Cup race at the time. Reraise went on to an Eclipse Award. In 2003, he prepared Elloluv to a game second for owner Paul Reddam in the Breeders’ Cup Ladies Classic to Adoration.

This November, Craig is hoping that 2-year-old, Tree of Life, a son of Lionheart out of a Gulch mare, will be in the 1-mile gate for the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf. The youngster will need to bounce back from his unplaced effort in the Dixiana Breeders’ Futurity at Keeneland on Oct. 6, when closing late and tightened in the stretch. The colt, owned by West Point Thoroughbreds broke his maiden in style at Del Mar on Aug. 18, the day before Awesome Gem ran what turned out to be his swansong.

As one racing chapter winds down, another develops, as is the nature of this business for owners and trainers. But few chapters run as long as that written by Awe-some Gem, worthy of the accolades that class, honesty and longevity bring.

“His are tough shoes to fill.”

Decline in number of stallions from 2011

The number of stallions de-clined 3.8 percent from the 1,935 reported at this time in 2011, and the number of mares bred fell 3 percent from the 36,504 reported at this time last year.

RMB statistics for all reported stallions in 2012 are available through the Publications & Resources section of The Jockey Club’s website at jockeyclub.com. The number of stallions cover-ing 100 or more mares increased from 84 in 2011 to 87 in 2012. These stallions accounted for a greater percentage of the total mares reported bred this year — 31.9 percent of all mares bred in 2012 versus 30.6 percent of all mares bred in 2011 as reported at this time last year.

Further book size analysis shows a 1.1 percent increase in the number of mares bred to stallions with a book size of 100 or more in 2012 when compared to 2011 as reported at this time last year; a 14.4 percent increase in mares bred to stallions with a book size between 75 and 99; a 4.1 percent decline in mares bred to stallions with a book size be-tween 50 and 74; an 10.6 percent decrease in mares bred to stal-lions with a book size between 25 and 49; and an 6.3 percent

decline in mares bred to stallions with a book size fewer than 25.

In 2012, Cape Blanco (IRE) led all stallions with 220 mares bred. Rounding out the top five were Scat Daddy, 217; Kitten’s Joy, 213; Uncle Mo, 211; and Wilburn, 169.

Thoroughbred breeding activity in Kentucky tradition-ally leads North America. During 2012, Kentucky’s 224 reported stallions covered 15,361 mares, or 43.4 percent of all of the mares reported bred in North America. The number of mares bred to Kentucky stallions declined 2.2 percent against the 15,714 re-ported at this time last year.

Of the top 10 states and provinces by number of mares reported bred in 2012, only Florida and New York stallions covered more mares in 2012 than in 2011, as reported at this time last year. The following table shows the top 10 states and provinces, ranked by number of mares reported bred in 2012 through Oct. 14:

A former Miss Teen Alaska, a graduate of USC and a song girl for the school, Christian, 42, was found unresponsive by the United States Coast Guard and was later pronounced dead at a North Carolina hospital.

“She was always bubbly and energetic, so full of life,’’ said George Ortuzar, the current pro-motions manager – a job once held by Christian – at Betfair Hol-lywood Park who worked with her and remained in contact. “She loved horse racing and was one of the people who helped start the Railbird Club (which re-mains a popular Sunday feature for handicappers and workout watchers during the Spring/Sum-mer and Autumn meets).

“She was so happy to be on the ship. She texted me all the time and let me know how excited she was about all the dif-ferent places they were going.’’

Christian began work-ing on the Bounty, which is a replica ship of the “Mutiny on the Bounty’’ vessel, in May. Accord-ing to her Facebook page, she was a descendant of Fletcher Christian, who was portrayed by Errol Flynn, Clark Gable, Marlon Brando and Mel Gibson in vari-ous films.

“I live, work and travel the sea aboard the HMS Tall Ship Bounty,’’ Christian wrote on her Facebook page. “A sailing mu-seum traveling from port to port sharing our ship and our history.’’

An accomplished singer, Christian was also the owner and founder of the Cheerleader Doll Company, which manufactured exacta replica of college cheer-leader dolls for more than 100 of the country’s top universities.

OCT 28, 2012Kinder, LABlaze Forward sells for $14,500 to top LQHBA Mixed SaleBy Michael Cusortelli

Blaze Forward, a yearling

gelding by the graded stakes placed Corona Cartel stallion Look Forward, sold for $14,500 to top Saturday’s Louisi-ana Quarter Horse Breeders’ Association Mixed Sale at the Coushatta Casino Resort near Kinder, Louisiana.

The lone horse consigned to the

sale by Lynnette Douget of Ville Platte, Louisiana, Blaze Forward was acquired by Cecil Walker. The gelding’s dam, the winning 12-year-old Fishers Dash mare Fishers Prissy Lady, is a half sister to Shoot N Shine, a winning daughter of Chicks Beduino who ran third in the 2001 Scott Lewis Handicap at Los Alamitos.

The high-selling mare, Zazoom, was acquired for $7,500 by Mamou Prairie Stables. One of 15 horses consigned by Chris and Kim Blanchet’s Blanchet Farms of Ville Platte, Zazoom is a 7-year-old mare by Shazoom who won two stakes in 2008, including the Grade 2, $93,700 Firecracker Derby at Delta Downs. Her dam, the winning Vital Sign mare Diamonds For Toni, ran second in the ‘02 Sam Houston Derby (Grade 2).

Another horse from the Blanchet Farms consignment, Passme Some Joy, was the sale’s top selling yearling filly. The

brown daughter of the Storm Cat (TB) stallion Storm Passage (TB) and the stakes-winning Streakin La Jolla mare JT Joy Ride sold for $7,000 to D & S Racing LLC.

According to preliminary reports provided by the LQHBA, the sale grossed $226,000 and averaged $2,000 per head, a drop of 2 percent from last year’s aver-age of $2,041. The median price for the 113 head sold was $1,100, up 10 percent from the 2011 median of $1,000.

OCT 27, 2012Oklahoma City, OKCliff Berry wins 4,000

Jockey Cliff Berry rode his 4,000th Thoroughbred winner at Remington Park to become the 65th jockey in North America to accomplish the riding feat. The win came aboard Brown Okie, who was the 4-5 favorite in the third race.

Berry, a 50-year-old native of Joplin, Mo., has resided in Jones, Okla. for more than 20 years and has won the Remington Park leading jockey title on 14 occa-sions. Nearly half of Cliff Berry’s wins have come in Oklahoma City, as he has recorded 1,923 Thoroughbred wins at Reming-ton Park since the track opened in 1988.

Berry also is the all-time leading rider at Remington Park, winning his first RP riding title with the1996 spring meeting; he

then won the title again in: 1998, 1999, 2000 fall/winter, 2001 fall/winter, 2002, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2010 and last year’ 2011 meet with 68 wins.

“I felt the pressure in the gate; I guess it was because I knew this one could be the one. It felt like I was riding in a million dol-lar race,” said Berry. “I’m amazed that I could go this far, I’ve been lucky and never have been hurt too bad. I didn’t do too well in the early days so I want to thank all those who stuck behind me. I guess you might say I’m a slow learner,” Berry said with a grin.

In 2011 Berry was inducted into the Oklahoma Horse Racing Hall of Fame. He is also the all-time leading rider at Lone Star Park and won the riding title at Oaklawn Park in 2011 and 2012. He is credited with his first career win June 3, 1981 at Louisiana Downs in Bossier City, Louisiana.

Race Park, the John B. Connally Turf Cup was awarded Grade III status in 2006, the first Thorough-bred graded stakes since Sam Houston Race Park opened in 1994.

trained or under the care of such trainers are ineligible to be entered or start in any race under the juris-diction of the New Mexico Racing Commission.

These 11 trainers have

certain appeal rights governed by the racing jurisdictions who issued the disciplinary actions. AQHA will continue to monitor the cases and has taken its ac-tion pending the final outcome of the cases.

Over the next several weeks there will be important racing industry meetings that will bring together the national associations to discuss ways to further strengthen rules, poli-cies and plans to move forward with reformed racing rules. AQHA also will continue to work with all racing jurisdictions that participate in American Quar-ter Horse racing to develop a database for our Members to have access and to communi-cate about rulings and where AQHA might be able to offer assistance.

“The vast majority of our members love and enjoy spend-ing time with their horses. They want the drug issue cleaned up, and AQHA is dedicated to using the resources we have available to make sure this happens. The statements made over the last several months by tracks such as Los Alamitos, Ruidoso Downs, Remington Park and actions taken by racing jurisdictions such as California, New Mexico and Louisiana show that prog-ress is being made. We applaud them and others for their efforts in addressing these issues, and encourage all racing jurisdic-tions to reciprocate and recog-nize rulings from other jurisdic-tions” said Don Treadway, AQHA Executive Vice President.

A total of 326 horses sold for $4,988,400 during the two-day event. The 278 yearlings sold went for a solid average price of $16,884. The median price for yearlings of $11,000 represented a 10% increase from 2011. The average sale price for yearlings decreased by 7.7% from the near sale record numbers posted last year. The 2011 average was boosted by

eight yearlings that sold for $100,000 and was the Equine Sale’s highest average since 1996.

“The sale enjoyed a tre-mendous first day and a solid second day,” said Dino Perez, the business manager of the Pacific Coast Quarter Horse Racing As-sociation. “The median price for yearlings was up significantly from 2011 and that’s a very posi-tive statistic. The sale average for yearlings this year was also still up 28 percent compared to 2010. We had good crowds and a great atmosphere on both days. It was a very good sale.”

Ed Allred was the leading buyer with four purchases for $159,000. Sammy Valeriano made two purchases for a total of $150,000 and Julia Cesar Encinas bough eight head for $144,500. Burns Ranch, Agent,

OCT 28, 2012Los Alamitos Race Course, Cypress, CAChivalry SR surprises in Los Al Championship

Stern Ranches’ homebred Chivalry SR made the Grade 1, $750,000 Champion Of Champi-ons a more intriguing race and probably inspired major changes in the weekly AQHAracing/Horseplayernow.com national poll when he upset second-place fi nisher El Aguila Real and third-place fi nisher Cold Cash 123 in the Grade 1, $150,000 Los Alami-tos Championship on Sunday night at Los Alamitos.

Chivalry SR, at nearly 7-1 odds, broke cleanly from the inside post position and was on the lead for the entire race while covering the 440 yards in :21.519. He is the 400-yard track record holder at :19.067, set in the 2011 Spencer Childers California Breeders Championship.

Making his fi rst start for trainer Jose Antonio Flores, Chiv-alry SR fi nished a head in front of El Aguila Real and reigning world champion Cold Cash 123, the 2-5 favorite, was only a neck back for third in the tight fi nish.

El Aguila Real and Cold Cash 123 each have their Champion Of Champions invitations by virtue in wins in qualifying races earlier this year. Chivalry Sr now joins them in the 440-yard classic and those three horses could be the top-three choices.

Chivalry SR is always danger-ous at the grade 1 level when he is in peak form and he has been lightly campaigned this year after surgery.

“I thought he did extremely well last year because he ran in seven stakes races and was fi rst, second or third in everyone of those races,” said owner Albert Stern. “He also set a track record and after such a busy campaign he had minor clean up surgery. Dr. Wayne McIlwraith performed the surgery. We also did stem cell surgery in his knee.

“He probably needed the race in the Go Man Go. We didn’t have any social plans for Decem-ber 15 so we’ll be here for the Champion of Champions.”

Chivalry SR came off a nine-month layoff , including the sur-gery, to fi nish sixth in the Grade 1, $100,000 Go Man Go behind Cold Cash 123 in the Go Man Go Handicap.

It was a stellar year for Chivalry SR in 2011 when he banked $206,388 of his career earnings of $437,116, including the $145,500 he earned in the Los Alamitos Championship. In addition to his track-record setting win in the Childers, the gelding was second in the Ves-sels Maturity and the Go Man Go, and third in the Champion Of Champions and the Los Alamitos Championship.

Javier Molina’s El Aguila Real, a gelding by Corona Czech, broke a three-race winning streak with his close second-place eff ort. The Francisco Vallejo-trained started his streak when he won the Grade 1, $228,000 Los Alamitos Winter Championship in February and took the Grade 1, $200,000 Ves-sels Maturity in his previous out. He scored his fi rst Grade 1 win in the 2011 Southern California Derby for trainer Vince Smith.

T. Bill Stables’ homebred Cold Cash 123 ended a six-race winning streak with the latest

fi ve of those victories coming in Grade 1 races. His previous loss came in last year’s Grade 1, $1.3 million All American Derby when he hesitated at the start and was never able to gain contention, fi nishing seventh.

Cold Cash 123’s Grade 1 streak stretched over four tracks and comprised the Texas Clas-sic Derby, The Championship at Sunland Park, Leo Stakes, Remington Park Championship and the Go Man Go Handicap. He raced for trainer Sleepy Gilbreath before he joined the Denny Ekins barn this fall for his Los Alamitos campaign.

Last year’s world champion, champion three-year-old and champion three-year-old geld-ing, Cold Cash 123 has earned $1,255,281 with 12 wins from 18 starts. He has nine wins from 11 starts at 440 yards.

OCT 27, 2012Delta Downs, Vinton, LALee’s Spirit surges to win Gold Cup

Lee’s Spirit, making his fi rst start on the dirt since February, unleashed a powerful late rally and benefi ted from a fast early pace to win the $100,000 Gold Cup Stakes over one mile at Delta Downs.

Ridden by John Jacinto, Lee’s Spirit was timed in 1:39.17 to defeat Populist Politics by two-

and-three-quarter lengths while it was another one-and-one-half lengths back to third place run-ner Heavy On Themister.

Lee’s Spirit, owned by Edward Johnston, Scott Bou-dreaux and Donald Gaudet, raced to his fi rst win since taking a $25,000-claiming race in May at Louisiana Downs. Since that win he has been competing in allowance races and stakes at Louisiana Downs.

At Delta Downs, the John-ston-trained Lee’s Spirit now has three wins, a second and three third-place fi nishes from nine starts.

Runner-up Populist Politics was favored after being on the board in four of fi ve starts this year with a dominating win in a $50,000 allowance race two starts ago.

Third-place fi nisher Heavy On Themister was been fi rst or second in his four previous starts and won the Evangeline Downs Mile from gate-to-wire in his previous out.

Santa Anita Race Course, Arcadia, CAFavored Lady Ten and Bejarano take Autumn Miss Stakes

Rafael Bejarano has been missing at Santa Anita. Missing from his customary perch atop the rider standings, and, with the exception of the Grade 3,

$100,000 Autumn Miss Stakes, all of Saturday – his lone engage-ment, due to a three-day riding suspension.

And, due to the fact the Au-tumn Miss is classifi ed as a desig-nated race by track stewards, the Peruvian native made the best of his lone opportunity this week, booting home 2-1 favorite Lady Ten, while holding off a furious rally from 9-1 shot Customer Base and Garrett Gomez, to win by neck, getting the Autumn Miss distance in 1:34.95.

“This fi lly is very nice to ride, and easy to ride,” said Bejarano. “She likes to be close to the lead so I was a little worried in the beginning. She broke good from the gate but I knew there would be a lot of speed so I tried to make sure to give her help from the gate so she could fi nd a posi-tion in the race.

“When I got my position at the fi rst turn I just tried to hold her a little bit, then let her run when we hit the top of the stretch…I was waiting for Gar-rett’s horse late because I knew his fi lly would be the only one running at the end…It ended up perfect for my fi lly.”

Lady Ten, a Kentucky-bred fi lly by Rock Hard Ten, has had considerable success with Bejara-no up, as he is now three for four when paired with the Mercedes Stable homebred.

Lady Ten sat second to 26-1 shot Viva Carina, tracking

fractions of 23.19, 47.55, 1:11.55, and took the lead at the top of the stretch, stopping the seven-furlong timer in 1:23.24.

Lady Ten paid $6.80, $4.20 and $2.80.

With the winner’s share of $60,000, Lady Ten extended her bankroll to $246,244, from an overall record of 11-4-5-2.

Customer Base, who broke from the outside post in the 10-horse Autumn Miss, broke alertly, but was taken in hand early and was just two-wide around the Club House turn. Gomez bided his time to the far turn and asked his fi lly for her best mid way on the turn.

“I just couldn’t get to the winner in time,” said Gomez. “I waited and waited, then weaved through some traffi c, and when I turned for home and swung out, she went after the leader but I just ran out of time.”

Customer Base fi nished 1 ¼ lengths in front of Charm the Maker and paid $8.60 and $4.80.

Charm the Maker, off at 5-1 with Brice Blanc aboard, made a run through the lane and was third-best, returning $4.00 while fi nishing a half-length in front of Viva Carina.

Golden Gate Fields, Berkeley, CAMiss Empire fi ghts back to win Pike Place Dancer

Southern California ship-

per Miss Empire, the 1-2 favorite ridden by Russell Baze, won a stretch-long battle with 10-1 Butterfl y Soul to capture the $100,000 Pike Place Dancer Stakes by a neck at Golden Gate Fields.

Miss Empire fought back after losing the lead to Butterfl y Soul to earn her second career stakes victory. Making her fi rst start on turf in the one-mile feature for 2-year-old fi llies, Miss Empire clocked a time of 1:38.84 on a rain-dampened course rated “good” and paid $3.00 to her throng of backers.

“The turf was a little soft and she was bobbling on it,” said Baze. “If she had gotten a better hold of the turf, I don’t think they would have gotten to her. As soon as that horse (Butterfl y Soul) came up to her she dug back in, but it took her awhile to get her momentum and get going. Toward the end, she switched back to her left lead and was able to accelerate past the other horse. I think she has a promising future.”

Butterfl y Soul was ridden by Dennis Carr, who returned to Golden Gate Fields for the fall meeting after spending the past few years in New York. Carr fi nished second to Baze in the jockey standings at 10 major meetings in Northern California during two previous stays in the area.

“Just like old times,” said Carr

Lee’s Spirit Lady Ten


R A C E R E C A P S

with a grin upon entering the jockey’s room following the Pike Place Dancer.

Butterfl y Soul, based in Northern California and trained by Genaro Vallejo, was also making her fi rst start on turf and greatly pleased Carr with her eff ort.

“My fi lly ran huge,” said Carr. “First time on grass, you couldn’t ask for anything more. Hopefully she’ll have a future on it (turf ). She got a hair bit tired but Rus-sell’s fi lly dug in. She made the favorite work hard.”

Miss Empire, a Kentucky-bred daughter of Empire Maker, is trained by Peter Miller and owned in partnership by Gary and Cecil Barber and Kevin Tsu-jihara. Winner of the Cinderella Stakes at Hollywood Park during the summer, Miss Empire earned $60,000 for the Pike Place Dancer victory and has made $207,120 in seven career starts.

OCT 26, 2012Remington Park, Oklahoma City, OKAmerican Sugar wins Gaylord Memorial; Berry at 3,999

American Sugar won the second stakes race of her young career on Friday night at Reming-ton Park, holding on to win the $50,000 E.L. Gaylord Memorial Stakes by a head over Cat Five’ O.

Owned by Poindexter Thor-

oughbreds of Springfi eld, Mo. and trained by Lynn Chleborad, American Sugar was ridden to the stakes triumph by Alex Birzer. While keeping a good position in the backstretch of the 6-1/2 furlong stakes race for 2-year-old fi llies, American Sugar was full of run entering the lone turn. In order to keep her momentum rolling, Birzer placed American Sugar four-wide as she quickly moved past her foes and had the lead at the top of the stretch.

American Sugar bettered the pace-setting Kentucky Gem but was unable to get much breath-ing room as Cat Five’ O came after her throughout the stretch run. American Sugar found the fi nish just in time to hold on, covering the distance in 1:17.44 over the fast track. Kentucky Gem held third after setting the early fractions of :22.08 for the quarter-mile and :45.70 for the half-mile.

Away at 7-2 odds in the wagering, American Sugar paid $9.20 to win, $5.20 to place and $4.20 to show. Cat Five’ O paid $5 to place and $3.60 to show. Kentucky Gem returned $10 to show. Tacita was the beaten 5-2 wagering favorite, fi nishing fi fth.

The Gaylord victory was the third from six career starts for American Sugar as she won her Remington Park debut. She adds the score to her prior stakes win in the $75,000 Prairie Gold Lassie at Prairie Meadows in Altoona, Iowa in July. A fi lly by Harlan’s Holiday

from the Quiet American mare I Love America, American Sugar was bred in Kentucky by Fares Farm. American Sugar earned $30,000 to move her lifetime earnings to $99,866. She was bred in Kentucky by Fares Farm.

Jockey Cliff Berry won the fi nal race on Friday aboard Purrfume ($10.20 to win) to move within just one of his 4,000 career Thoroughbred victory. Berry rides fi ve times on Saturday night in his quest to become the 65th jockey in racing history to reach the 4,000-win mark. The Jones, Okla. resident leads the current season standings with 43 wins.

Delta Downs, Vinton, LAShe’s Prado’s Idol has timely win in Magnolia Stake

The Garland Goins-owned

and -trained She’s Prado’s Idol made a sweeping move on the fi nal turn to handle a fi eld of Louisiana-bred fi llies and mares over one mile in the $100,000 Magnolia Stakes at Delta Downs on Friday night.

She’s Prado’s Idol was clocked in 1:40.81 for the one-length win over Pretty Not while Harlie’s Dreams fi nished third.

Jockey Tracy Hebert allowed She’s Prado’s Idol to relax off the pace out of the gate in eighth place while fast fractions were being run by Midge Four, who faded to seventh place. The fi eld bunched entering the second turn with She’s Prado’s Idol racing with a clear path on the outside. The three-year-old daughter of Screen Idol easily moved to the leaders and then controlled the race through the stretch as the

Prado’s Idol raced to her eighth win from 11 starts and she is having an excellent sophomore campaign with fi ve wins with a second and a third from eight outs. Delta Downs has been kind to the fi lly with the Magnolia Stakes being her third win from four starts over the track.

Alan and Pam Simpson’s Pretty Not won the Louisiana Cup Distaff two starts before and Louisiana Downs for trainer Pam Simpson.

Coteau Grove Farms’ Harlie’s Dreams, trained by Patrick Devereux Jr., came off a win in a $37,000 allowance race and was second in her three previous starts.

Prairie Meadows, Altoona, IAClay, Smith step up at Prairie Meadows By Ty Wyant

Trainer Brent Clay and jockey Stormy Smith certainly showed up at Iowa Championship night with horses ready for superior eff orts as the team took three of the more important races —

the Jim Bader Futurity, the Polk County Derby and the Future of Iowa Stakes on the card with seven stakes events.

Smith also won the the Q-Racing Video Distance Stakes and an 870-yard allowance race on the 11-race program.

The night for Iowa-bred racing began closing weekend of the track’s Quarter Horse season. The highlight of the weekend is Saturday’s Bank of America Chal-lenge Championships, featuring Llano Teller and Rylees Boy in the $350,000 Bank of America Chal-lenge Championship (G1).

In the $128,000 Jim Bader Futurity with the highest purse on the program, Robert Brown and Sandra Brown’s Tellher To Fly tried to bear in during most of the race, however Smith was able to keep the Teller Cartel fi lly out of serious trouble. She lined and went on to win over 7-10 favorite and fastest qualifi er Catchin Fire. TCF New Love was another one-half length back in third.

Tellher To Fly raced the 350 yards in :17.832.

The 19-10 second choice, Tellher To Fly raced to her fi rst stakes win and third win from

four starts. In the fi rst of two Bader trials, Tellher To Fly fi nished second as the 2.5 favorite, one length behind Catchin Fire with the second-fastest qualifying time of :18.105.

Thomas Lepic’s Catchin Fire, a daughter of Chicks A Blazin, was the favorite after winning her three previous starts. The highlight of that winning streak was a one-half length win in the Iowa QHR Sale Futurity.

John Lawless’ TCF New Love won a $20,000 maiden-claiming race two starts before the futurity and then won the second trial by three quarters of a length to give trainer Clay a 1-3 fi nish in the Bader.

Clay did one better in the $94,400 Polk County Derby when he sent out Eufaula Me and Brim-min for a one-two fi nish.

John Lawless’ Eufaula Me was clearly the best horse in the 400-yard derby as he broke alertly, easily drew away from his rivals and cruised under the fi nish line to win by two lengths. He was timed in :19.753 as the 2-5 favorite.

Eufaula Me has won six of eight starts at Prairie Meadows,

including the Iowa Double Gold Derby. He came into the Polk County Derby off a close third-place run in the Altoona Derby.

A gelding by Okey Dokey Dale, Eufaula Me has won seven of 11 starts and his earnings now approach $200,000.

Craig Kirby’s runner-up Brimin, a gelding by Brimmerton, came off a win in a $5,000 condi-tioned claiming race. He had won his maiden in his prior start, his fourth career eff ort.

Charlton and Startet Hunt’s Count The Menace raced to a third place fi nish in the Iowa Double Gold Derby for trainer Charlton Hunt in his previous start.

In the $60,000 Future of Iowa Stakes for distaff ers, Sheri Lynn Andrew’s Jess A Lil Twisted was clearly the best horse as the three-year-old fi lly dominated older mares as the 13-10 favorite under Smith.

A daughter of Jess Louisiana Blue, Jess A Lil Twisted raced the 350 yards in :17.351 and won by two lengths to keep her excellent record at Prairie Meadows intact. The Clay-trained fi lly has three wins and two seconds, including

runner-up in last year’s Bader Futurity, at the track.

Jess A Lil Twisted made her only other start this year at Prairie Meadows in August and was a daylight winner of an allowance race.

The Regal Streak was second by a neck over TRS A Classy Dash.

In the $60,000 Terrace Hill Stakes for older horses at 400 yards, Warren Garrels’Iris Cartel-sbadnews raced to his fourth-straight win at Prairie Meadows by scoring the professional victory.

Iris Cartelsbadnews got a sharp start under Berkley Packer and battled for the lead before pulling away for his fi fth win from eight 2012 starts in :19.686.

A 5-year-old gelded son of Agouti, Iris Cartelsbadnews started his winning spree with an

allowance win and then he took another allowance victory before winning the Two River Stakes by one length.

With his four-for-four record at Prairie Meadows this year, Iris Cartelsbadnews now has eight wins from 14 career starts at the Iowa track.

Brent and Karen Clay’s Shake Em Streakin fi nished second and Kay Sages’ Wheres Your Wagon was third.

In the $39,000 Iowa Stallion Derby over 400 yards, Tommy D. Jones-bred, -owned and-trained Yougottobekiddinme totally outclassed his competition as the 3-5 favorite.

Yougottobekiddinme raced the 400 yards in :20.263 while under a hold by jockey Berkley Packer and winning by an easy one-and-three-quarter lengths.

A gelding by Hot Shot Dash, Yougottobekiddinme won last year’s Iowa Stallion Futurity by two-and-three-quarter lengths. He has three wins and two thirds from seven starts at Prairie Meadows.

Yougottobekiddinme, the 1-2 favorite, was clearly the class of the three-year-old fi eld. His competition included six maid-ens and four horses with only one win.

TRS Bootscootin Skirt and second and Hot Shot Junior fi nished third.

In the $51,850 Iowa Stallion Futurity, Zach Madden’s Imma-hotdude reasserted himself in the fi nal 50 yards to gain his third victory from four starts.

Immahotdude, a gelding by Hot Shot Dash, covered the 350 yards in :17.842 to win by one-

half length as the 13-10 favorite. He got the early lead and then allowed the competition back in the dash before gaining the win under Doug Frink.

Clarinda Rohweder’s McR Abbey Rose raced evenly with Immahotdude midway through the race and gained second over Vernon Hammes’ TRS Justamaz-ingpadon.

Immahotdude won his maiden at fi rst asking and then fi nished third in a non-winners-of-two allowance race. He came back to win his Iowa Stallion Futurity trial by one-half length with the fastest-qualifying mark of :18.371

In the $25,000 Q-Racing Video Distance Stake at 870 yards, J. Garvan Kelly and Nancy Yearsley’s homebred Free Stater raced on the lead throughout

the race and then drew away from his rivals to win by two-and-a-quarter lengths as the 8-5 favorite.

Free Stater was timed in :45.932 under Stormy Smith.

The Donald Davidson Jr.-owned and -trained Snow Kan made a late bid but was unable to threaten Free Stater. Tom Ma-her’s Jack Jessee was third.

Free Stater, a four-year-old gelding by Separatist, has en-joyed his stay at Prairie Meadows this fall in the Charley Hunt barn. He won his trial to the Red Cell Prairie Meadows Distance Chal-lenge in his local debut and then fi nished third in the fi nals against the rising 870-yard star Call Her Hero.

OCT 21, 2012Los Alamitos Race Park, Cypress, CAOne Dashing Eagle superlative in Golden State Million trials

All American Futurity winner One Dashing Eagle probably already had the champion two-year-old title secured before the Golden State Million trials and he probably converted any possible disbelievers with an overwhelm-ing performance in the 11 trials to the $1,118,000 Golden State Million trial on Sunday night at Los Alamitos.

The certain overwhelm-

ing favorite in the November 4 futurity, One Dashing Eagle put on a spectacular show in the seventh trial. Bingo raced to the then fastest time of :19.708 for 400 yards in the previous trial and then One Dashing Eagle made that time look pedestrian when he won his trial in :19.482 while jockey Ramon Sanchez was aboard for the trip down the Los Alamitos straightaway. By comparison, reigning world champion Cold Cash 123, a four-year-old, won the Grade 1, $100,000 Go Man Go Handicap in :19.511 last month while under a hold by jockey Roy Baldillez.

Bingo’s time held up as the second-fastest qualifying mark.

One Dashing Eagle got a competitive start and then blew up the trial while drawing away to the two-and-one-half-length win as the 1-9 favorite.

“It seems as if every time he runs it’s a bigger and better sur-prise,” said trainer De La Torre. “He broke in a little bit at the start of his trial, but other than that he was perfect. My heartbeat was going at 20,000 beats per minute watching him out there on the track. It’s hard to describe how incredible we are feeling right now.”

Owned by trainer Jose De La Torre, Gustavo De La Torre and San Gregorio Racing Stable, One Dashing Eagle will be favored to win his third million-dollar futurity in the Golden State Mil-

lion, The son of highly successful freshman sire One Famous Eagle won the Grade 1, $1 million Ed Burke Futurity in June and then shipped to Ruidoso Downs for the All American Futurity because he was not eligible to compete in the Los Alamitos Two Million, a race without a time-of-entry supplemental payment. If there would have been a supple-mental payment, his connections have said he probably would have stayed in California to shoot at the $1 million Los Alamitos Cash Bonanza that would goes the to winner of the Ed Burke Mil-lion, Golden State Million and the Los Alamitos Two Million.

That lack of eligibility to the Los Alamitos Two Million proved fortuitous at Ruidoso Downs this summer. The striking colt worked to a neck win over quali-fi er Sudden Thoughts in their All American Futurity trial and then stepped up with an impressive three-quarter-length win over Sudden Thoughts in the Grade 1, $2.4 million All American Fu-turity, the world’s richest quarter horse race, at 440 yards.

One Dashing Eagle goes into the Golden State Million with fi ve wins from six starts and earnings of $1,628,405. His sole setback came in his career debut when he was second in a Los Alamitos maiden race back in April.

The Golden State Million will be the fi nal start of his juvenile season.

Joining One Dashing Eagle and Bingo in the Golden State Million are Amore La Blue (:19.713), Fires Blazin (19.785), Watch Linda Ballet, (:19.801), Henoshersecret (:19.806), Tres Coronas Mas (:19.817), Separate Interest (:19.817) and Scoop Of Sunshine (:19.820).

OCT 20, 2012Golden Gate Fields, Berkeley, CAHalo Dolly bounces back with victory in Miss America Stakes

Halo Dolly bounced back from her rough road trip to New York by scoring an authorita-tive victory in the $64,300 Miss America Stakes at Golden Gate Fields.

Halo Dolly, who fi nished last in the Grade 1 Flower Bowl Invitational Handicap at Belmont Park on Sept. 29, came back in just three weeks to win the Miss America by 1 3/4 lengths over 41-1 longshot Sweetly Peppered.

Ridden by Russell Baze, Halo Dolly completed 1 1/16 miles on the Lakeside Turf Course in 1:44.72 while recording her fi fth stakes victory of the year and the seventh of her career.

Halo Dolly is trained by Jerry Hollendorfer, who wanted his fi lly to get over her trouncing at Belmont Park as soon as possible.

“She was acting real well,

One Dashing EagleFree Stater

R A C E R E C A P S

so I decided to try to get a race where she could win and get that last one off her mind,” said Hollendorfer. “She’s been run-ning against better horses so I thought she had a good chance and she came through for us.”

Halo Dolly, who scored the biggest win of her career in the Grade 2 Yellow Ribbon Stakes at Del Mar on Sept. 3, went off as a heavy 4-5 favorite in the Miss America and paid $3.80.

“She looked like the best horse in here and I fi gured if I give her any kind of decent trip she should win,” said Baze. “She’s a classy fi lly. She’s got enough speed to put herself in a good spot.”

Halo Dolly tracked longshot pacesetter Triveni to the far turn, charged to the lead turning for home and then held her rivals safe to the wire. Halo Dolly banked $39,500 for the victory – her 14th win in 24 career starts – and the payday increased her earnings to $666,896.

Racing continues at Golden Gate Fields Sunday. Post time is 12:45 p.m. and the track is off ering $1 general parking, $1 general admission, $1 programs, $1 hot dogs, $1 beers, $1 sodas and the opportunity to watch all the NFL games via the Sunday Ticket.

Will Rogers Downs, Claremore, OKJust Wannabe Postoak upsets Cherokee Challenge

Noel Lopez Prietos Just Wannabe Postoak, sent off at 30-1 odds, held safe Tel A Story to race to a neck win in the $52,400 Cherokee Challenge at Will Rog-ers Downs.

Just Wannabe Postoak, with James Flores aboard for his third win of the day, was racing with the leaders when he surged at the halfway mark of the 300-yard stakes and then held off a late bid of Tel Story to win with a :15.332 time.

Chics Delight was right there at the fi nish, just a neck behind Tel A Story.

The Luis Villafranco-trained Just Wannabe Postoak was totally overlooked after fi nishing off the board in his six previous starts. The last time the Royal Blue Chew Chew gelding was on the board was when he was placed third in The Signature Stakes last December at Hialeah Park.

James Sills’ homebred Tel A Story won a pair of allow-ance races at Will Rogers Downs before fi nishing second in the Cherokee Challenge.

Tina and Dale Kolb’s Chics Delight came off a third-place run in the Charlie Claborn Stakes at Will Rogers. She was third in the Merial Remington Park Dis-taff Challenge this spring.

Los Alamitos Race Park, Cypress, CACheckspeed fastest in Wild West

J.P. Sample ad Emily Law-rence’s Checkspeed showed who was the best horse in the $113,900 Wild West Futurity with an easy win over rival and odds-on favorite Marargitas N Coronas at Los Alamitos.

Checkspeed raced the 350 yards in :17.377 to win the race for juveniles who have raced in the northwest.

Gregorio Arriaga’s Check-speed got off in an excellent start and had the race in his control by the halfway mark. He steadily pulled away for the three-quarter length win at 9-2 odds.

“He broke super fast and in no time we were well ahead of the fi eld,” Arriaga said.

Robert Hickman’s Margari-tas N Coronas, the 7-10 favorite, was second, a head in front of Dynasty Red.

A gelded son of Check Him Out, Checkspeed won his maiden with the Wild West victory after fi nishing second in his two previ-ous Los Alamitos starts, each behind Margaritas N Coronas. In his fi rst start at Los Alamitos he was defeated by a head in The Plan Handicap as the 5-2 favorite and then was second by three quarters of a length in his Wild West Futurity in 2-1 odds. He was the third-fastest qualifi er to the Wild West Futurity with a :17.687 mark.

The Bret Vickery-trained Margaritas N Coronas, a geld-ing by Corona Czech, won two races in his fi rst six starts before coming to Los Alamitos to point at the Wild West Futurity. He was then spotless in his two Los Alamitos starts while defeating Checkspeed before the Wild West Futurity.

Turf Paradise.Lewiston covered the six

furlongs in 1:11.28 for the three-quarter-length win after a game trip.

The Adolfo Morales-ridden Lewiston gained the lead on the turn and then fought gamely between rivals through the stretch before asserting himself for his second win from three career starts. He was overlooked in the wagering despite taking a maiden-optional claimer in his only start over the Turf Paradise track.

Gadsden Purchase, owned by trainer Doug Oliver with Wayne Wiseman and Dave Marshall, was second as the 3-10 favorite after winning the spring ATBA Stakes.

Mark Breen’s Storm Driver was another fi ve-and-one-half length back for third after racing six-wide into the turn. The Kevin Eikleberry-trained colt had one maiden win in his career debut from three previous starts.

Youbetshewon was pushed down the backstretch in the fi lly division and then established her superiority on the turn and entered the stretch with a two-length advantage. She then humbled her rivals while pulling away to win by more than seven lengths. She has shown her aff ec-tion for the Turf Paradise surface last spring when she won her fi rst two outs before fi nishing second

behind Gadsden Purchase in the spring ATBA Stakes.

G. Chris Coleman’s Rock Those Hips was second by a head over Swiss Engagement, owned by Dr. Thomas McChesney and Sharon Gillette.

Santa Anita Race Course, Arcadia, CABroken Dreams, Gomez rally to win Maddy Stakes

Although it looked a bit hopeless a furlong from home, Garrett Gomez and Broken Dreams persevered and man-aged to collar pacesetter Kindle close home to successfully de-fend their title by a half-length in Saturday’s Grade III Senator Ken Maddy Stakes going 6 ½ furlongs on turf at Santa Anita.

Kindle, who shot to the lead at the top of the hillside course and set blistering fractions of 20.97, 42.53 and 1:05.30, was fi ve lengths clear of Broken Dreams when crossing the dirt at the top of the lane.

“The simple fact is, coming to the dirt, instead of picking her (Kindle) up, she actually moved away from me another length or so and I was like Oh man,” said Gomez. “…By the time we hit in-side the eighth pole, she (Kindle) wasn’t coming back still…Finally (she) went ahead and threw in the towel and folded up about the last 50 yards, and I knew Broken Dreams was going to stay

on well.“Last year when she won

this race she looked like she was going to run fi fth outside the sixteenth pole and she ended up winning by a length, so I have a lot of confi dence in her.”

For his part, trainer Tom Proctor acknowledged his mare was special.

“She’s been a nice mare for three years, she hasn’t given us any problem at all,” said Proctor. “I might try to run her two turns in the Goldikova (Grade II Stakes, at one mile on turf Nov. 4), just because that’s here in two weeks. We’ll see.”

Owned and bred by her breeder, Leonard Lavin’s Glen Hill Farm in Florida, the 6-year-old mare by Broken Vow paid $8.40, $5.00 and $3.00. The winner’s share of $60,000 hiked her bank-roll to $477,682, from a record of 22-7-5-1.

Runnerup Kindle obviously ran too well to lose under Edwin Maldonado. Bet down to the 5-2 second choice off of a morning line of 4-1, the 4-year-old fi lly by Indian Charlie drew outside among eight horses and came off a win in the Bangles and Beads Stakes at Fairplex Park on Sept. 21. She was trying turf for the fi rst time in the Maddy.

“Just a little bit too long for her, but she’s a good fi lly with a big heart,” said trainer Gary Man-della. “I love her. I thought she’d

be in front, but it didn’t matter whether she had speed on paper or not. The way she broke, you were just going to go on. You can’t take horses back when they break like that.”

Kindle paid $4.40 and $3.20. Byrama, the lone 3-year-old

in the fi eld with Rafael Bejarano, was the 2-1 favorite. She was in tight shortly after the break and came running three-wide through the stretch, but came up three-quarters of a length short on the wire. She paid $2.40 to show.

OCT 19, 2012Remington Park, Oklahoma City, OKFifth Date wins Classics Cup; She’s All In continues Distaff streak

The 20th Oklahoma Classics were contested Friday night at Remington Park. The full slate of Oklahoma-bred stakes races did not disappoint with a mix of favorites and stars winning along with a few longshots.

Fifth Date, an 8-year-old gelding who primarily has com-peted in sprint races his entire career, scored the top race of the evening in the $155,500 Chicka-saw Nation Oklahoma Classics Cup, powered by TVG. Easily the biggest win for Fifth Date, it hap-pened just two races after he was claimed for $18,000.

R A C E R E C A P SClaimed by owner Danny

Caldwell of Poteau, Okla. on Aug. 25, trainer Federico Villafranco started Fifth Date in a 1 mile-70 yard event for his fi rst race off the purchase. The stretch-out move off of sprints helped build his stamina for the 1-1/16 miles Classics Cup. The claim was made with the big race on Classics Night in mind.

“When I claimed the horse I was kind of aiming for this race,” Caldwell said. “We didn’t really know if he could get the distance so Alex and I talked about get-ting him to relax and he did a great job.”

Jockey Alex Birzer let Fifth Date rate in third for the fi rst six furlongs of the race to save some run for the stretch. The tactic worked to perfection as he had plenty left to pull clear to a 2-1/2 length victory at 20-1 odds.

“Normally this horse always goes to the lead I thought it was a pretty good idea to try and get him back today,” Birzer said. “He had a good trip and sat about three or four wide. At the top of the lane we just stalked the leader and he ran a big race.”

Imahit took over the pace duties in the early backstretch of the race, leading by more than two lengths with a half-mile to go. Lucky Reward had the lead into the fi rst turn to set the quarter-mile split :23.95 with the half-mile split in :47.30. Imahit continued up front for three-quarters of a mile in 1:11.53 before tiring in the stretch.

Fifth Date pounced on the leader with plenty in reserve, getting the mile in 1:37.08 and crossing the fi nish in 1:43.63 over the fast track. Imahit held second while Ted’s Folly charged from last to make third-place, 5-1/2 lengths behind the victor.

Fifth Date paid $42.20 to win, $9.60 to place and $6.40 to show. Imahit, the beaten 7-5 favorite, returned $3.40 to place and $3.20 to show. Ted’s Folly paid $4.60 to show.

The win was the 15th from 59 career starts for Fifth Date who has now won nine Reming-ton Park races. A son of Cherokee Five from the Black Tie Aff air (Ire) mare Miss Owl’s Aff air, Fifth Date was bred in Oklahoma by Al Horton.

Fifth Date won $93,300 in the Classics Cup to jump his over-all earnings to $431,740.

She’s All In continues Distaff winning streak

Another Oklahoma Clas-sics night… another win in the $128,900 Distaff presented by the Eastern Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma for She’s All In. The talented 5-year-old mare who routinely wins in open com-pany, returned to her Oklahoma stomping grounds to win the Distaff for the third consecutive year.

Owned by Robert Zoellner of Tulsa, Okla. and trained by Donnie Von Hemel, She’s All In cruised to an easy seven-length win in the Distaff under Luis Qui-nonez. The mare stalked the pace set by Lesley Be Judged who made the quarter-mile in :23.52 and then a half-mile in :47.84. At that point in the backstretch, Quinonez let She’s All In go and she made the race her spotlight event once again.

She’s All In had the ad-vantage before the end of the fi nal turn, handling six furlongs

in 1:12.31, the mile in 1:37.01 and then crossing the fi nish in 1:41.13. Okie Blonde gained second with Lady Jensen along for third.

The heavy 1-9 wagering favorite, She’s All In paid $2.20 to win, $2.10 to place and $2.10 to show. Okie Blonde returned $4.60 to place and $3 to show. Lady Jensen paid $2.40 to show.

The Distaff is the 14th career victory for She’s All In and the ninth score at Remington Park. A mare by Include from the Hickory Ridge mare Georgia OK, She’s All In was bred in Oklahoma by her owner. The winner’s share of $77,340 now gives She’s All In $766,605, approaching the hal-lowed million-dollar mark now with every eff ort.

The Distaff win was the third in a row for She’s All In and the fourth consecutive for her owner and breeder Zoellner. His Peach Brew won the Distaff in 2009 before She’s All In took the baton.

She’s All In provided Donnie Von Hemel his Oklahoma Classics all-time leading 21st win and his fourth overall Distaff . Quinonez posted his 10th Oklahoma Clas-


sics win in the Distaff .

Supplemental payment worth Turf dividends for Ridge Road

Owner and trainer Boyd Caster of Jones, Okla. thought enough of his 4-year-old colt Ridge Road to give him a chance to run in the $127,780 Oklahoma Classics Turf, presented by Choc-taw Nation. The belief cost Caster and upfront payment of $11,000 to make Ridge Road eligible for the Classics competition. While he tussled with the decision, Caster eventually put his money up to back his charge.”

“I was pretty reluctant about spending the money to make this horse eligible for the Classics,” Caster recounted. “$11,000 is a lot of money on the come. The horse has been doing super, training super. We just took a shot and it paid off . I was hoping to run fourth to get

my money back.“He’s had a pretty good year

with three wins, a second and a fourth. One thing about this horse, when he runs he doesn’t leave anything out there on the racetrack. He gives you a 150% and that’s all you can ask for.”

Jockey Lindey Wade put a gutty ride on Ridge Road in order to help get Caster’s investment to pay off . Moving well throughout the fi nal turn after relaxing near the back of the pack for much of the fi rst six furlongs of the mile race, Ridge Road had to move through a thin opening early in the stretch in order to succeed.

“Around the turn I had a lot of pony and was just letting him creep up there and was looking for somewhere to go,” Wade said. “Finally the rail opened up and when he got the courage to go through there, he was gone, they weren’t going to catch him.”

Ridge Road moved to the

lead through his seam at the rail in the stretch, then drew away to win by 1-3/4 lengths over anoth-er late runner in Okietate. Lucky Moon was positioned up front throughout the Turf, settling for third, a head behind the runner-up. Ridge Road was able to reel the fi eld in after Don’t Okie Luck set early pace fractions of :23.25 for a quarter-mile, :47.45 for the half-mile and 1:12.06 for six fur-longs. He crossed the mile-fi nish in 1:36.74 over the fi rm going.

Away at 8-1 odds, Ridge Road paid $18.60 to win, $7.60 to place and $4.60 to show. Oki-etate returned $16 to place and $7.20 to show. Lucky Moon paid $3.60 to show. Strategic Leader, winner of the Turf for three years straight from 2008-2010, was the beaten wagering favorite at 2-1 odds while fi nishing sixth.

Ridge Road is a colt by Fistfi te from the Time For A Change mare New Direction and was bred in Oklahoma by Laura Buff ord. He won for the fi fth time in 20 career starts and for the second time at Remington Park. The fi rst-place check for the Turf of $76,668 gives Ridge Road $161,492 overall.

Miss Natalie wears down Flatterifi c for Distaff Sprint triumph

The $113,050 Oklahoma Classics Distaff Sprint presented by Global Gaming Solutions went to Miss Natalie after she dug down to just get up by a head at the end of six furlongs.

Owned by Gar Oil Corp. of Fort Worth, Texas and trained by Joe Off olter, jockey Cliff Berry had the job of getting Miss Nata-lie past Flatterifi c to win in the stretch. A task that he wasn’t sure he would be able to accomplish until the fi nal strides.

“The horse on the lead (Flat-terifi c) kind of got away from me a little bit in the stretch but she was sharp. She’s usually farther back than tonight but Joe (Of-folter) had her right.”

Miss Natalie sat just a

length or two off the pace set by Princess Claire when she set the quarter-mile fraction of :22.30. Flatterifi c then took the lead in the lone turn and was able to get clear in the stretch after a half-mile in :45.22. Berry would not let Miss Natalie settle for less than the best as she made a big fi nal move late in the stretch to get the victory in 1:09.91.

At 4-1 in the wagering, Miss Natalie paid $10.80 to win, $6 to place and $3.20 to show. Flatteri-fi c paid $6.80 to place and $4 to show. Winner To Be fi nished third as the beaten 2-1 favorite, paying $2.60 to show.

The Distaff Sprint win was the seventh from 25 lifetime at-tempts for Miss Natalie, a 5-year-old mare by Fistfi te from the Slew The Slewor mare It’s The Berries. She was bred in Oklahoma by Center Hills Farm.

In winning her fourth race at Remington Park, Miss Natalie made $67,830 to run her career bankroll to $280,190. The Distaff Sprint was the third Oklahoma Classics win for Off olter and the 23rd for Berry who holds the all-time mark in the series for jockeys.

Miss Natalie also provided Berry with his second win of the night as also he won the opener on the card aboard Bar Babe ($3.80 to win). The double gives Berry a career total of 3,994 Thoroughbred wins as he bids to become just the 65th jockey in racing history to reach 4,000.

Okie Ride repeats in Okla-homa Classics Sprint

Racing against Oklahoma-bred company for the fi rst time this year, Okie Ride faced his own-kind in the Remington Park Oklahoma Classics Sprint pre-sented by Kaw Nation - and won it again. Making just his third start of 2012, Okie Ride more than doubled his year-to-date earnings by winning $66,600 of the $111,100. He dashed the six furlongs in 1:09.60 over a fast track.


R A C E R E C A P STrained by Kenny Nolen, the

fi ve-year-old gelded son of Can-dy Ride is owned by his breeder, Richter Family Trust (John and wife Kris Richter) of Perkins, Okla., and pushed his lifetime earnings to $340,662. Jockey Luis Qui-nonez was cleverly positioned just off the outside hip of the pace-setting Conkigo in an eff ort to prevent rival Stickrossmoun-tain from getting a clear run at the leader.

At the top of the stretch Okie Ride found his best stride and steadily edged clear to draw off by 2-¾ lengths. Okie Ride, the 1-5 wagering favorite, paid $2.40 to win, $2.20 to place and $2.10 to show. Stickrossmountain easily fi nished second and paid $8.60 to place and $3.00 to show. Steal Your Face fl ew late to get up for third and paid $2.20 to show.

Okie Ride has now won eight races from 19 career attempts with six of the scores at Reming-ton Park.

Soonerette controls Distaff Turf

Soonerette sprang to the front in the Oklahoma Classics Distaff Turf presented by Chero-kee Nation Entertainment and never looked back, to win the $112,400 grass race restricted to Oklahoma-bred fi llies and mares.

The 3-5 betting favorite re-cently was beaten less than two lengths in the Grade 3, $175,000 Pucker Up Stakes at Arlington Park on September 15th. Trainer Donnie K. Von Hemel worked the 3-year-old daughter of Master Command twice over the Rem-ington Park turf course in order to maintain her fi tness and help her become familiar with the lo-cal grass surface.

Jockey Luis Quinonez sent the speedy miss into the far turn in front by one length and maintained that measure out of the turn to fi nish in front by 1-¼ lengths and give Dr. Robert Zoell-ner one of his two Oklahoma Classics Night wins. Soonerette covered the seven and one-half

furlongs over the fi rm turf in 1:29.41.

Zoellner’s homebred earned $67,440 to earn her fourth win of 13 lifetime races and push her lifetime earnings to $200,127. Skedee, winner of the Oklahoma Classics Distaff Turf in 2009 and 2010, made an eager and serious run at the leader but could not make any headway. It is reported that Skedee, a 7-year-old mare, was making the fi nal start of her successful and popular racing career and will be bred in 2013.

Soonerette paid $3.20 to win, $2.40 to place and $2.20 to show. Skedee returned $3.20 to place and $2.40 to show, while 20-1 longshot Okie Nova checked in third to pay $44.40 to show.

Soonerette, from the Sky-walker mare Gigi’s Skyfl yer, was bred in Oklahoma and posted her fi rst Remington Park win in the Distaff Turf.

Jump And Go rolls In JuvenileJump And Go bounded

from a maiden victory to a stakes victory by easily taking the $80,400 Oklahoma Classics Juvenile presented by Chickasaw Nation. Trained by the classy veteran trainer Don Von Hemel, Jump And Go gave Beverly J. Lewis, of Iola, Kansas, the biggest win of her career as an owner. Purchased at the 2011 Oklahoma Thoroughbred Yearling Sale for $10,500, the gelded son of the A.P. Indy stallion Jump Start, was bred by Young Stables and is undefeated in his two starts in Oklahoma.

Jump And Go cruised to a comfortable 3-½ length win under jockey Shane Lavio-lette and paid $11.20 to win, $4.60 to place and $3.60 to show. The 9-5 race-favorite Shirley Elizabeth showed the way until inside the fi nal furlong and yielded to pay $3.40 to place and $2.80 to show. Lion Of Lone Oak was last in the early running and rallied to fi nish third and pay

$5.20 to show.The win was the second

from just fi ve starts for Jump And Go, both at Remington Park this season. He earned $48,240 for the victory to move his young career money to $79,995.

Motivare breaks maiden status to win Lassie

After three career starts in maiden races this season Moti-vare had shown some promise but had yet to fi nish strongly enough to move on to the ranks of winners. In the $83,100 Clas-sics Lassie presented by Coors, Motivare discovered the strength to put rivals away, pulling clear to a 3-3/4 lengths win.

Owned by the Wichita Falls, Texas partnership of Phil Hoede-beck, Jr. and Pat Sheetz, Motivare is trained by Brent Davidson and was ridden by Glen Murphy. A 20-1 longshot in the wagering, Motivare rallied from just off the pace to take control in the fi nal furlong before handling six

furlongs in 1:12.29. Motivare paid $42.40 to win,

$13.40 to place and $9.20 to show. There was dead-heat for second between Shez Tuned Up, $5.20 to place and $7.20 to show, and Sockie Bomb who paid $2.80 to place and $3.20 to show.

A 2-year-old fi lly by Mr. Trieste from the Sadlers Congess (Ire) mare Pelusada (Chi), Moti-vare made $49,860 to move her bankroll to $68,893.

Delta Downs, Vinton, LAMadam Cactus gets well -timed ride for My Trusty Cat win

Mr. and Mrs. Marc Ferrell’s Madam Cactus received a tactical ride from Richard Eramia as the 9-5 favorite to win the $150,000 My Trusty Cat Stakes for two-year-old fi llies on opening night of the Delta Downs thorough-bred season on Friday night.

Madam Cactus covered the two-turn seven furlongs in 1:27.29 for her second-straight win and her second win from three starts.

The daughter of Cactus Ridge from the Steve Asmus-sen stable appears to be ready for longer distances after her late-running My Trusty Cat vic-tory. She rated nicely behind a wall of horses going down the backstretch and was looking for racing room at the top of the stretch.

Eramia swung the fi lly to the outside in the stretch and she aggressively went to the lead and won by and expanding two lengths.

Dale Ladner’s Sittin At The Bar was in contention and fi n-ished second as a 15-1 outsider. It was one-and-three-quarter lengths back to Gold Mark Farm’s Cayllano, who had an excellent trip and found an opening along the rail before coming up short.

Madame Cactus started her career in a fi ve-and-one-half $70,000 maiden race at Del Mar and made a four-wide rally to fi nish second. She then won her maiden by more than six lengths over six furlongs at Santa Anita. She took the lead earlier in that race and won as the 2-1 favorite.

Sittin At The Bar, trained by Brett Brinkman, showed prom-ise with her second-place run after winning her maiden at fi rst asking in her previous start. She won by nearly eight lengths at Evangeline Downs.

The Tom Amoss-trained Cayllano won her fi rst two starts, including dominating a minor stakes at Delaware Park, before shipping to Saratoga and racing to a fourth-place fi nish in the Grade 2, $200,000 Adirondack Stakes.

OCT 15, 2012Turf Paradise, Phoenix, AZLast Chance To Dance at Turf Paradise

Richard and Genevieve

Herman’s impressed at 6.5-1 odds and goes into the Grade 1, $350,000 Bank of America Challenge Championship in peak form with his one-and-one-half length domination of the $60,000 Bank of America Turf Paradise Challenge on Sunday afternoon at the Phoenix track.

The $20,000 John Deere Turf Paradise Juvenile Challenge and the $17,000 Red Cell Turf Para-dise Distance Challenge were also on the program and the win-ners of the three races earn the fi -nal invitations to their respective races during the Bank of America Challenge Championships on October 27 at Prairie Meadows. The Turf Paradise races are the fi nal qualifying races before the Challenge Championships.

Patriots Glory stood out in the 440-yard Bank of America Turf Paradise Challenge when he easily drew away from his competition in the last half of the race for the win under a hand ride from Eliot Bachicha Jr.

The Felix Gonzalez-owned and -trained Pot Ocash fi nished second by three quarters of a length over Victor Ramos’ What I Want.

The Hipolito Michel-Valverde-trained Patriots Glory was a close second behind Pot Ocash in their trial and had the third-fastest qualifying time. The Game Patriot gelding had won his three previous starts, all at

Arapahoe Park, capped by a one-half length win in the $15,000 RMQHA Stakes.

In the John Deere Turf Paradise Juvenile Challenge, the Cynthia Gonzalez-owned and-trained Jess Like Stoli charged down the outside track and got the win by the narrowest of mar-gins in a very tight fi nish.

Jess Like Stoli fi nished a nose ahead of 5-2 favorite Dashaway Eagle, winner of the AQHRA President’s Spring Futurity, while Black Storm Regard was just another nose behind for third.

A gelding by Stoli, Jess Like Stoli won his trial by a nose to win his maiden. He showed stakes class in June when he was a close third in the $129,000 Four Corners Futurity at SunRay Park.

In the Red Cell Turf Paradise Distance Challenge the Gerardo Ochoa-Pena-owned and -trained Prince Bac won as the 1-9 favorite despite veering in and out through the stretch.

Ridden by Jorge Martin Bourdieu, Prince Bac gained the early lead in the 870 yard stakes and then Mister Michael raced to the front on the turn. At the top of the stretch, Prince Bac surged back to the lead, ran erratically, but still won by more than fi ve lengths in :46.065.

Mister Michael was second and Nofearoff ailure was third in the four-horse fi eld.

Prince Bac scored his

OCT 13, 2012Prairie Meadows, Altoona, IARide My Wagon wins tight Futurity

The John Hudson-leased Ride My Wagon had her nose extended at the right time to win a very tight three-horse photo in the Grade 3, $211,750 Val-ley Junction Futurity at Prairie Meadows.

It was a stakes tripleheader at the Altoona, Iowa track with the Grade 3, $84,950 Altoona Derby and the $45,000 Two Riv-ers Stakes.

Trainer Stacy Charette-Hill won the futurity and the derby with a pair of PYC Paint Your Wagon fi llies.

Ride My Wagon was a nostril ahead of HH Guns Drawn and it was a head back to third-place runner Her Painted Wagon.

It was a close fi ght for the last half of the 350-yard futurity. Ride My Wagon and Her Painted Wagon got quick starts while HH Guns Drawn was off a step slow. HH Guns Drawn showed his tenacity, fi ghting back to the leaders and just lost the head

bob at the fi nish.The David Brown ridden Ride

My Wagon was timed in :17.682 while HH Guns Drawn had a :17.682 time and Her Painted Wagon stopped the clock in :17.702.

Ride My Wagon, the 3-1 favorite, came into the futurity as the fastest qualifi er after win-ning her trial by one length with a :17.682 time. The improving fi lly won her third-straight race. Before her trial score, she took a non-winners-of-two-allowance race. Therefore, in her latest three starts, she won an allowance race, was the fastest qualifi er to the Valley Junction and then gamely won the futurity.

Bradley Hale and Wade Helton’s HH Guns Drawn ran a strong race for trainer Brent Clay. The third-place fi nisher behind Ride My Wagon in their trial as the 7-5 favorite, the Jess Louisi-ana Blue gelding won the Iowa Double Gold Futurity two starts ago.

Circle S Ranch’s Her Painted Wagon, another PYC Paint Your Wagon fi lly, came into the futu-rity with a three-for-three record for trainer Connie Barnes. She won her trial by three quarters of a length with the third-fastest time of :17.761.

In the 400-yard Altoona Derby, Christine and Mikel Do-nahue’s Corona Mit Go proved best in the last half of the race to

win by head over Specials Gold under a confi dent ride from Cody Jensen.

Specials Gold was right there in second but not mak-ing up ground on Corona Mit Go. Fastest-qualifi er Eufaula Me fi nished third, another neck back in the competitive fi nish. Odds-on favorite Cruzin The Wagon fi nished fourth.

Corona Mit Go won three-straight races before fi nishing third behind Eufaula Me in their derby trial. She started her win-ning streak with a maiden win in her sixth start. She then moved up allowance class levels for her next two wins.

In the 440-yard Two Rivers Stakes for older horses, War-ren Garrels’ Iris Cartelsbadnews gained a length advantage within 100 yards of the wire and easily maintained that lead to get the win in :21.748 under Berkley Packer.

Hollywood Trickster was second and Mr Commando was a neck behind Hollywood trickster for third. The three outsiders combined for a $1,707.40 payoff for a two-dollar trifecta.

Iris Cartelsbadnews, trained by Amy Wessels, was stepping up in class after an allowance win. The Agouti-sired gelding now has four wins from six starts this year and the Two Rivers was his fi rst stakes win.

OCT 8, 2012Santa Anita Race Course, Arcadia, CAGervinho mounts furious stretch rally to win Zuma Beach as Breeders’ Cup beckons; Surfer Girl taken by Flashy Ways

California-bred Gervinho, who lost his footing momentarily approaching the quarter pole, launched a furious stretch rally under Rafael Bejarano to take the inaugural $100,000 Zuma Beach Stakes by one-half length, getting the one mile on turf in 1:34.59 and projecting himself as a likely starter in the $1 million Breeders’ Cup Juvenile (mile) Turf at Santa Anita on Nov. 3.

A $49,000 Barretts October yearling purchase a year ago, Gervinho was dispatched as the even-money favorite and he vali-dated his fi rst-out maiden special weight win at Del Mar on Sept. 3 by stretching out to defeat a fi ve rivals in his fi rst try on turf.

Owned by California Horse Racing Board Chairman Keith Brackpool and trained by Carla Gaines, Gervinho, as the son of Unusual Heat was shuffl ed near the back of the pack as he ap-proached the quarter pole.

“I thought he was going to go down,” said Bejarano. “He slipped and it threw me side-ways, but he gave me a great kick

through the stretch.” Gervinho, named by Brack-

pool for the Ivorian soccer player who plays for Arsenal, Brack-pool’s favorite soccer club in Eng-land, blew by Den’s Legacy and Garrett Gomez, who had stalked splits of 23.11, 46.62, 1:10.81 and 1:22.62 prior to taking the lead past the eighth-pole.

“We’re going to seriously look at the Breeders’ Cup Turf,” said Brackpool following the Zuma Beach, which was run as the third race. “That was quite a (stretch) kick.”

Brackpool also noted that to-day’s win had sentimental value.

“The win was extra special for me today as it is my father’s 78th birthday. He (Brian Brack-pool) got me interested in this sport and we have shared many great memories together. This just adds to the list of great memories. Horse racing does that!”

With the Zuma Beach win-ner’s share of $60,000, Gervinho’s bankroll swelled to $102,000 as he remained unbeaten in his second start.

The winner paid $4.20, $2.60 and $2.20.

Den’s Legacy, who was a well beaten fi fth in the Grade 1 FrontRunner Stakes on Sept. 29, did everything but hold off the winner, and fi nished 2 ¼ lengths in front of the pace-setting third-place fi nisher Dancin Upside Down, who was ridden by Juan Hernandez.

Den’s Legacy paid $3.40 and $3.00. Dancin Upside Down returned $4.20 to show.

While the Zuma Beach had a formful ending, the inaugural running of the $100,000 Surfer Girl Stakes for 2-year-old fi llies at one mile on turf produced an upset, as Riley Racing Stables’ Flashy Ways won going away by 2 ½ lengths under Joe Talamo in 1:34.45.

Trained by Richard Baltas, the Kentucky-bred by Catienus sat a close fi fth in the fi eld of seven early and was a length off

the lead going to the quarter pole. A brisk pace of 22.95, 46.47, 1:10.47 and 1:22.59 was carved out by 3-1 second choice Upbeat Mood and David Flores, Bares Tripper and Martin Pedroza, and Truly Marie, with Martin Garcia up.

“We just had a perfect trip,” said Talamo. “Three of them went out there in a speed duel and we just sat behind. Then turning for home I turned her out and had a lot of horse. She’s bred up and down for the turf on her dam’s side.”

Talamo had also ridden Flashy Ways in her maiden $50,000 claiming score going 5 ½ furlongs on Polytrack Aug. 16 at Del Mar.

“Richard has done a great job with her. She was fi t and ready to go today. Again, I just had a perfect trip with a good horse underneath.”

Flashy Ways paid $16.40, $6.20 and $5.20.

Undefeated in two starts, Flashy Ways picked up $60,000 for her Surfer Girl win, extending her bankroll to $81,600.

Runnerup Wishing Gate, who was the 2-1 post time favor-ite, settled next to last early, split horses in midstretch and fi nished strongly under Garrett Gomez but did not threaten the win-ner while fi nishing 1 ½ lengths in front of third-place fi nisher Somethingabouther and Victor Espinoza.

Wishing Gate paid $4.20 and $2.80, while Somethingabouther returned $4.80 to show.

OCT 7, 2012The Downs at Albuquerque, NMLongshot Sapello Cantador scores fi rst stakes win in UNM Handicap

Given a perfectly timed ride by jockey John Rochabrun, long-shot Sapello Cantador rallied to win Sunday’s 1-mile, $50,000 Uni-

versity of New Mexico Handicap (R) for state-bred Thoroughbreds at The Downs at Albuquerque.

Sapello Cantador closed off of the fractions of :26.65 and :50.54 set by Dueling Dom before he reached the wire in 1:38.27, and his margin of victory was a neck from Dueling Dom. Robert Esquibel trained the homebred 4-year-old gelding by Valet Man for Dr. Miguel Gallegos’ Gallegos del Norte Racing of Albuquerque.

Sapello Cantador became the third stakes winner sired by Valet Man, a 14-year-old son of the Mr. Prospector stallion Carson City who earned $75,709 from 14 starts while racing in Florida, Kentucky, and Illinois from 2001-02. Valet Man’s 31 starters have banked more than $852,000 and include his top earner, three-time stakes winner La Sorpresa.

A half brother to Student Council, the winner of the 2007 Pacifi c Classic Stakes (G1) at Del Mar, and Grade 3 winner Grade-point, Valet Man is owned by and stands at Gallegos del Norte Ranch in Albuquerque.

Sapello Cantador’s dam, the homebred mare Sapello Serenade, is a winning 9-year-old daughter of the Seattle Slew stallion Sadler Slew.

Sapello Cantador was com-ing off of a fi fth-place fi nish in the 7-furlong, $50,000 E.T. Springer Stakes at Albuquerque on September 9. He has won

four of 17 starts, and his season record includes a 3 3/4-length victory over $10,000 New Mexico-bred claimers at Sunland Park on March 18.

The $30,000 winner’s share of the University of New Mex-ico Handicap purse increased Sapello Cantador’s earnings to $112,022.

Sent to post at odds of 12-1, Sapello Cantador returned a $26.60 win mutuel and teamed with runner-up Dueling Dom for a $114.40 ($2) exacta. Groushy Apadana, the 8-5 favorite in the fi eld of fi ve, fi nished third to complete a $2 trifecta payoff of $270.80.

Desert Dude and Spinning Touch completed the order of fi nish.

The lone 3-year-old in the fi eld, Dueling Dom is a gelding by the Storm Cat stallion Domi-nique’s Cat who has won two of 11 races and has banked $70,142 for his owner, Judge Lanier Rac-ing. Dueling Dom ran second, a half of a length behind winner Zenon’s Star, in the 6 1/2-furlong, $75,000 Dine Stakes (R) for state-bred sophomores at SunRay Park on May 27.

Groushy Apadana was com-ing off of a three-quarter length win in the E.T. Springer Stakes for owner 5 Star Racing LLC. A one-time $5,000 claimer, the 7-year-old gelding by the Crafty Prospector stallion Mr. Groush

Charal Kid wins the 16th running of the Grade 1, $75,000 Refrigerator Handicap at Lone Star Park at Grand Prairie tonight and secures a berth in the fi nals of the $750,000 Champion of Champions at Los Alamitos this December.

Owned by Malinche Cattle Co., Inc. and trained by Eusevio Huitron, Charal Kid, ridden by Santos Carrizales just held on to the wire. Closing fast, Mr Truly Uno, missed by a head to take place. Post time favorite Jls Mr Bigtime put in a solid eff ort, but lost the show by a nose to Price-less Feature. Final time for the 440-yard race for three-year-olds and up was 21.323 over a fast track.

Santa Anita Race Course, Arcadia, CACoil strikes in Grade 1 Sprint Championship; Irish-bred Obviously wires Grade 2 Arroyo SecoBy Beth Harris

Bob Baff ert has a lot of deci-sions to make heading into the Breeders’ Cup.

Coil and Capital Account made things a little more inter-esting with their 1-2 fi nish for the Hall of Fame trainer in the Grade I, $250,000 Santa Anita Sprint Championship on Saturday.

Coil edged Capital Account by a head in a fi nish decided by a photo.

Amazombie, last year’s champion sprinter, was fourth as the 4-5 favorite ridden by Mike Smith.

Coil ran 6 furlongs in 1:09.89 under Martin Garcia and paid $17.20, $7.60 and $4 after being sent off at 7-1 odds in his ongo-ing transition to sprinting this year.

“It’s a great opportunity to get this horse back and I did

my job,” said Garcia, who had ridden Coil in fi ve straight races before being replaced by Rafael Bejarano in the 4-year-old colt’s previous two.

Capital Account and jockey David Flores returned $5.80 and $3.80, while Jimmy Creed was an-other three-quarters of a length back in third and paid $6.40 to show.

The result was a reversal of the Pat O’Brien Stakes at Del Mar on Aug. 26, when Capital Ac-count beat Coil by a half-length.

“It was very close at the end, but I knew it would have taken a couple more jumps to beat the winner,” Flores said. “I have to give great credit to my horse because when I asked him to go he was responding. Maybe next time I’ll have to go a little bit earlier.”

Amazombie was being prepared to defend his title in the Breeders’ Cup Sprint next month at Santa Anita.

“At the top of the lane I could tell he was starting to get a little bit tired,” Smith said. “He kicked on good until the eighth pole and then got really tired at that point.

“You’d certainly like to win, but with these types of horses, you’re talking about the fi rst two fi nishers probably being one of the favorites going to the Breed-ers’ Cup. The important thing was to get a good race in him and

move forward.”Trainer Richard Mandella

said he’s considering either the BC Sprint or BC Dirt Mile or the $100,000 Damascus on the Breeders’ Cup undercard for Jimmy Creed.

Coil, winner of last year’s $1 million Haskell Invitational, earned an automatic berth in the Sprint on Nov. 3, with his entry fees being paid as part of the “Win and You’re In” program.

Baff ert wasn’t at the track on a day when he had eight start-ers, and hit the board with three of them. He came into Saturday winning at a 46 percent clip since the Autumn Meet began on Sept. 28. Baff ert has seven wins, three seconds and a third with 21 starters.

In other stakes:

Obviously defeated Trail-blazer by 1 1/2 lengths to win the $150,000 Arroyo Seco Mile in a prep for the BC Turf.

Ridden by Joe Talamo, Ireland-bred Obviously ran a mile on the turf in 1:31.95 and paid $4.40, $3 and $2.10 as the 6-5 favorite. It was his third straight win for trainer Mike Mitchell, who had brain surgery this summer.

“He needed to perform like this today to consider the Breed-ers’ Cup with him, but now, why not?” he said.

Japan-bred Trailblazer returned $5.60 and $2.80 in his

Charal Kid Coil


U.S. debut. Mr. Commons was another half-length back in third and paid $2.10 to show, with trainer John Shirreff s saying he would consider the Breeders’ Cup for the 4-year-old colt. Midnight Interlude, who won last year’s Santa Anita Derby for Baff ert, fi nished last in the fi eld of fi ve and is 0-3 this year.

Obviously has six wins in 11 career starts and earnings of $370,361.

Merit Man overtook South Floyd nearing the stretch and went on to a 5 1/2-length win in the inaugural $100,000 Tim Conway Stakes under Patrick Valenzuela. The 2-year-old colt ran 6 furlongs in 1:10.56 and paid $7.80, $3.80 and $2.60.

Trainer Bob Hess Jr. said Merit Man might be pointed toward the BC Sprint. Valenzuela, who turns 50 later this month, returned after missing a few days with knee issues.

South Floyd returned $3.60 and $3, while No Rachmones paid $4.40 to show. Scherer Mag-ic, the 6-5 favorite, fi nished last among fi ve in the race named for the actor and comic who starred on the “Carol Burnett Show” and is a longtime supporter of the racing industry.

A Jealous Woman won the $70,000 Swingtime Stakes by 2 1/2 lengths under Brice Blanc.

She ran a mile on the turf in 1:33.64 and paid $14.20, $7 and

$4.20 for her fourth win in seven starts on Santa Anita’s downhill turf course. Lady Ten, trained by Baff ert, fi nished second.

Los Alamitos Race Park, Cypress, CAStel My Corona runs career best in Breeders’ Futurity By Ty Wyant

Tony Doughtie’s homebred Stel My Corona ran his career-best race and gave trainer Paul Jones his second win in three years in the Grade 2, $392,200 PCQHRA Breeders Futurity on Saturday night at Los Alamitos Race Course.

Jones won two years ago with The Goodbye Kisser.

A 12-1 outsider, Stel My Conora only won a maiden win from fi ve previous outs, however got an alert start under jockey Rodrigo Aceves before battling every step of the 350 yards to gain the one-half length win over 5-2 second-choice JR Dynasty Mountain, the second-fastest qualifi er. Favored fastest-qualifi er Far Niente was a close third at 17-10 odds.

Stel My Corona won his maiden in his third try and then had a tough trip in the California Breeders Freshman Stakes, fi nish-ing seventh. The gelding fol-lowed with a promising second-place run behind Far Niente in

their Breeders Futurity trial with the third-fastest qualifying time.

A son of Stel Corona, Stel My Corona has been brought along slowly by Jones since the Breed-ers Futurity and the Los Alamitos Two Million are the only futurities the gelding is eligible for com-petition. He will now point to the Los Alamitos Two Million trials.

JR Stables’ JR Dynasty Mountain impressed in his trial for trainer Bear Bassett when he drew out to win by two-and-one-quarter lengths for his fourth win from fi ve career starts. The FDD Dynasty son won his fi rst three starts in the northwest before fi n-ishing fourth in his All American Futurity trial at Ruidoso Downs, his start before the Breeders Futurity trials.

Tom Atwood and Ves-sels Stallion Farms’ Far Niente, another son of FDD Dynasty, also stepped up in his trial when he raced to his third win from four starts with the fastest-qualifying time of :17.407. The John Wells-trained colt defeated Stel My Corona by one-half length in their trial.

In the race before the Breed-ers Futurity, the $17,000 Whos-leavingwho Overnight Handicap, Mimi Wells’ homebred Forrest Fire scored a 10-1 upset with a neck win over Signifi cant Cartel. It was another nose back to Cash Him Out.

Aceves also got the win in

the Whosleavingwho for older runners with Forrest Fire sprint-ing to a :17.738 time for 350 yards.

The Dan Francisco-trained Forrest Fire won the Katella Handicap back in March and then followed with a second-place run in the Kaweah Bar Handicap.

OCT 5, 2012Los Alamitos Race Park, Cypress, CAIma Chickie Two scores double

S-Quarter K LLC’s homebred Ima Chickie Two joined a select list of horses who have won both the PCQHRA Breeders Futurity and the PCQHRA Breeders Derby when she raced to victory in the Grade 3, $170,000 Breed-ers Derby on Friday night at Los Alamitos on Friday night.

The other horses to perform this futurity-derby double are Hawkish, Make It Anywhere and A Zure Hope Too.

Ima Chickie Too needed about every yard of the 400-yard dash to gain her fi rst win since taking last year’s futurity. She burst from the gate under jockey Ramon Sanchez and opened by a three-quarter-length lead midway through the race. The daughter of Chicks Beduino held on to win by a neck.

#S3094812 ISSUED ON 10/24/2012 Trainer FRED IKE DANLEY (DOB: 07/17/1942 LICENSE #:56061327) having been duly notifi ed, and having appeared before the Board of Stewards on this date, regarding a lab report from Iowa State University (offi cial testing laboratory for the NMSRC) for a positive test for the Class III drug “Clenbuterol” which was found in sample #419813, after it was collected from the horse Pakea Bay, which fi nished in fi rst place in the 4th race, Sunday, June 24, 2012, at Ruidoso Downs. (The original lab report indicated Clenbuterol at 20 ng/ml or 20,000 pg/ml. Split sampling by

Texas A&M lab confi rmed Clenbuterol at 34.1 (+/- 2.9 ng/ml) or 34,100 pg/ml (+/- 2,900 pg/ml). FRED IKE DANLEY is found to be in violation of: 15.2.6.9(C)(1) NMAC: Which states in pertinent part that “A fi nding by the offi cial chemist of a prohibited drug, chemical or other substance in a test specimen of a horse is prima facie evidence that the prohibited drug, chemical or other substance was administered to the horse and, in the case of a post-race test, was present in the horse’s body while it was participating in a race (a) drugs or medications for which no acceptable levels have been established”. 15.2.6.9(K) NMAC: Which addresses in pertinent part the suspen-sion of Authorized Medications as outlined in sections 1,2,3,&4, which led to a subsequent NMRC published, posted, and distributed memo eff ective April 20, 2012, in which states in pertinent part that “Clenbuterol in a post race sample that exceeds the screening limit of 100 pg/ml in urine will constitute a violation of New Mexico Racing Commission rules. 15.2.6.11(A) NMAC and 16.47.1.10(B)(1) NMAC: Which states in pertinent part that “The Trainer is the absolute insurer of the condition of horses entered in an offi cial workout or race, and is responsible for the presence of any prohibited drug or medication, or other prohibited substance in such horse. A positive test for a prohibited drug or medication or other prohibited substance or the presence of permitted medication in excess of maximum allowable levels as reported by the commission approved laboratory is prima facie evidence of a violation of this rule. The Trainer is absolutely responsible regardless of the acts of third party.” For this violation, the Board of Stewards assessed FRED IKE DANLEY a penalty of the following: (1) A suspension of any/all NMRC held licenses for a period of six months (October 21, 2012 through April 21, 2013, inclusive); (2) A fi ne in the amount of one-thousand fi ve hundred dollars ($1,500.00); (3) Loss of purse of the fourth race, Sunday, June 24 2012, at Ruidoso Downs. (Refer to related ruling #0081912). This is the fi rst posi-tive test violation in a 12-month period. The fi ne is to be paid on or before any reinstatement date in accordance with 15.2.3.8(B)(3)(1) NMAC. Dur-ing said time of applicable suspension FRED IKE DANLEY is hereby excluded from all areas under the jurisdiction of the NMRC, in accordance with 15.2.3.8 (B)(3)(t) NMAC. Additionally, eff ec-tive on applicable suspension dates, all horses owned or trained, or under the care of FRED IKE DANLEY are ineligible to be entered or start in any race in this jurisdiction, per 15.2.1.9 (C)(21)(a-b) NMAC. (This ruling was made in accordance with applicable NMAC rules eff ective at the time of this off ense). By order of the Zia Park Board of Stewards.
