RUIDOSO DOWNS, NM—SEPTEMBER 3, 2018—In the $200,000 All American Juvenile on Ruidoso Downs' Monday undercard, Danjer played with his rivals to score an easy win.

The 440-yard All American Juvenile is for horses who did not qualify for the All American Futurity.

The Dean Frey bred-owned and trained Danjer blasted to the lead in the All American Juvenile and then was confidently ridden by the hot Cody Jensen to an easy win in :21.158 for the 440 yards.

On Saturday, champion jockey Jensen won the Grade 1, $1,200,000 All American Derby and the Grade 1, $200,000 All American Gold Cup.

The FDD Dynasty-sired Danjer defeated Midnite Blu by two-and-one-half lengths and it was another head back to third-place finisher Jess B Glory.

Danjer showed that he is a gelding with a big upside. He did not win his maiden until his third start, a maiden race at Canterbury Park. He was brought to Ruidoso Downs for the All American Futurity trials and he quickly showed that he belonged with the best two-year-olds at the track. He had a bump at the start of his All American Futurity trial and still won by one-and-three-quarter lengths.

After Danjer won the All American Juvenile is was announced that Pat Guthrie and Billy Smith have purchased part of the gelding and he will be supplemented to the Texas Classic Futurity at Lone Star Park.

Frey bred the brown gelding in California from the Take Off Jess mare Shez Jess Toxic. Danjer pocketed $84,000 today to push his earnings total to $96,682.

Too For Two’s Midnite Blu, a gelding by First Moonflash, was second in the $410,000 Zia Futurity against New Mexico-breds and then a close second in his All American Futurity trial.

Midnite Blu is trained by Wes Giles and G.R. Carter Jr. was aboard. Bred by Mike Abraham from the Corona Cartel mare The Blues Girl, Midnite Blu has banked $161,087 this season.

Bud Hill’s Oklahoma homebred Jess B Glory won her maiden in June and then was second in both her Rainbow Futurity and All American Futurity trials. The Mr Jess Perry-sired filly was ridden by Jimmy Dean Brooks for trainer Eddie Willis.

Out of the Valiant Hero mare Glory Rider, Jess B Glory has earned $29,651.

Rainbow Juvenile winner Rustys Miracle had a rough trip and was disqualified from fourth and placed ninth for interference.

Completing the official order of finish were Far Right, Whole Lota Cheyenne, Cds Wine N Dine, Dash Kam, Pappas Lookin, Rustys Miracle and Camila Special.
