AURORA, CO—AUGUST 13, 2017—Regard the Rose made it three for three with a convincing win in the $30,000 Arapahoe Park Quarter Horse Futurity on Sunday afternoon. Alfredo Triana Jr., who has ridden the filly in each of her career starts, was aboard again for her first stakes win. The pair covered the 400-yard race in 19.857, in the rain, to earn a 92 speed index.

Regard the Rose ($13.60) broke her maiden in her debut at Remington Park before shipping over to Arapahoe for trainer Juan Chavez Ortega and owner Mason A. King.

The filly was bred in New Mexico by the Coronas Black Diamond Partnership. She is by Chicks Regard, out of the Coronas Blackdiamond mare Not Sable Shes Rose.

Heza Poppin Dynasty drew next to the undefeated filly and was also in search of his third straight win. The FDD Dynasty gelding has won two of his four career starts, all at Arapahoe, with Noe Blonco Rodriguez in the irons. Lupe Chavez trains Heza Poppin Dynasty for Rivera Quarter Horse Racing Inc.

Heza Poppin Dynasty was bred in Oklahoma by Gary and Randal Kurz, out of Sheza Dashin Lil Pop, by Dashin Is Easy.

Post-time favorite Indomable Cartel finished third in Sunday’s Futurity. The colt broke sharply but was erratic down the stretch, finishing within a length of the top two.

Indomable Cartel was the easy winner of the $74,000 Cherry Creek Futurity at Arapahoe in July, and was seeking his third consecutive win heading into the Arapahoe Park Futurity. Fernando Fonseca-Soto, who rode Indomable Cartel in the Cherry Creek, was aboard again on Sunday.

The son of The Louisiana Cartel is trained by Luz Chavira for owner Mariano Cornejo. Francisco J Cornejo bred the colt in Colorado, out of Tahiti Wave, by Wave Carver.
