The Alberta Quarter Horse Racing Association promotes Quarter Horse Racing through the encouragement of breeding and ownership, as well as track development. Inaugurated in 1968, Quarter Horses have been competing in Alberta since 1957, beginning at the Millarville racetrack.
In the $35,115 (CAD) Alberta Stallion Stakes Derby (R) on Saturday at Century Mile, O Sawyer recorded his third career stakes win with a 1 1/2-length score under jockey Alejandro Angeles. Trained and owned by Wesley Oulton, who is also the breeder with Susen Oulton, O Sawyer clocked 330 yards in :17.014 for a 94 speed index.
A gelding by First Timber with earnings of $68,052, O Sawyer has a record of 13-3-3-2. His other two wins came in the AQHA Racing Challenge program in this year’s Adequan Century Mile Derby Challenge and last year’s John Deere Century Mile Juvenile Challenge.
Owner Jerry Stojan and trainer William Leech took second and third with offspring of Cerveza Corona. In second was the gelding Hot Cerveza, who ran third in last year’s Alberta Stallion Stakes Futurity. Third went to the filly Cervezas Fire, the winner of last year’s Sales Stakes Futurity.
