Fortunate Corona Heads Young Runners Debuting On Saturday At Los Alamitos

LOS ALAMITOS, CA—APRIL 8 2021—The carousel of top juveniles will continue Saturday night with 20 juveniles divided in three races as part of the eight-race program. Many of these runners are preparing for the trials to the Grade 2 Robert Adair Kindergarten Futurity taking place during the final Sunday of April.

S&S Horses’ Fortunate Corona is among the top young starts to watch, as he’ll make his racing debut in the fifth race on the card at 220 yards. The Monty Arrossa-trainee posted the fourth fastest of 21 drills on what turned out to be a morning of quick workout times on March 27.

The son of Corona Cartel covered the distance in :12.20 and that’s even with a slight bobble leaving the gate. He’s out of the three-time Grade 1 winning champion and millionaire Matabari. Jose Nicasio will ride the Balgo Racing Team-bred runner. Balgo Racing campaigned the great gray Matabari.

Other young runners to watch on this night include Ed Allred’s Seems Up, who posted a very professional workout when covering the 220 yards in :12.50 also on March 27, and Bobby Simmons’ Lukka, a Texas-bred colt sired by the Eclipse Award winning Thoroughbred Favorite Trick.
