2010 New Mexico Spring Futurity Trials
The trials for the 2010 New Mexico Spring Futurity were held this last Friday, March 26th at Sunland Park. It was a crazy windy day with a strong tail wind for most of the trials with the exception of 2. The later it got, the stronger the tail wind seem to get.
WR Dash won her trial and ran a time of 15.081 qualifying 6th fastest for the finals. Cozby ran a close second in his trial and ran a time of 15.090 qualifying 7th fastest for the finals. WR Aces Fame ran a close second in her trial and ran a time of 15.175 qualifying for the Juvenille. The finals for the 2010 New Mexico Spring Futurity will be held on Sunday, April 11th. WR Dash and WR Aces Fame are both owned by Rose Webb. Cozby is owned by The Coz Bunch. Congratulations to both owners for qualifying for the Futurity finals and the Juvenille.
Another impressive win came from High Five Lane owned by Kip Watterson. However, he drew the first trial which had a cross wind and unfortunately did not have a fast enough time to qualify. Guess that's horse racing and when it comes to the weather it's out of our hands. Dang the bad luck though.
