Regal Py Braeden Wins Remington Park Sunday Allowance For Second Straight Victory

OKLAHOMA CITY, OK—MARCH 25, 2018—Regal PY Braeden ended his 2-year-old season with a maiden-claiming victory at Prairie Meadows in Altoona, Iowa in October.

His first start of 2018 was a winning one, at long odds of 13-1, as he scored in a $21,000 allowance race Sunday at Remington Park.

Owned and bred in Oklahoma by Michael and Gail Ahern of Purcell, Okla., Regal PY Braeden is trained by Stacy Hill and was ridden by Jorge Torres.

The 3-year-old gelding launched from the starting gate, and his rail post position, clearing the field in the initial strides. Regal PY Braeden drifted about but was over two lengths ahead of his nearest rival until the final yards, crossing the 330-yard finish in :16.752 over a fast track. Moonshine Milly was 1-1/4 lengths behind in second while Telle Em Corona was up for third.

Regal PY Braeden paid $28 to win, $12 to place and $6.80 to show. Moonshine Milly returned $8.60 to place and $7 to show. Telle Em Corona paid $7.60 to show.

A son of Pyc Paint Your Wagon from the A Regal Choice mare The Regal Streak, Regal PY Braeden has now won two of his five career starts.

Remington Park’s American Quarter Horse Season continues over the final three days of March (29-31) with a first race nightly at 6pm-Central. The lone stakes race next week is on Saturday, March 31 with the running of the Grade 3, $40,000 Decketta Stakes for older fillies and mares going 350 yards.

There will be no live racing on Easter Sunday, April 1, at Remington Park.p>
