CLAREMORE, OK—SEPTEMBER 24, 2017—Kicking off the year with a 6-¼ length win for a $5,000 tag at Remington Park, Trubador Dan punched his ticket Sunday to the $105,000-Guaranteed Grade 1 AQHA Distance Challenge Championship by getting up at the wire a head in front of Thespeedprofessor in the $35,370 AQHA Will Rogers Distance Challenge.
Ridden by jockey Alfredo Triana, Jr. Trubador Dan completed the 870-yard course in :45.417 seconds, a 97-speed index into a 12-mph crosswind.
