LOS ALAMITOS, CA—SEPTEMBER 16, 2018—Owned and bred by Hayden Brothers Ranch, Estelline ran flawlessly from post number eight to win the third of six trials to the Grade 2, $365,000 PCQHRA Breeders Futurity in the fastest qualifying time on Sunday at Los Alamitos.
Ridden by Saul Ramirez, Jr. for trainer Danny Montes, Estelline had a clear lead right from the start and never looked back on the way to a 1-¾ length win over John Deere California Juvenile Challenge runner-up Capitol Grille.
Estelline covered the distance in :17.556 while posting her second win in as many starts at Los Alamitos. The Carters Cartel filly out of the mare Lady Of Reason SA had previously broken her maiden here by ¾ lengths on August 25.
Three months later and Montes is training the Oregon-bred filly.
