DALTS FANCY PISTOL POSTS TOP SATURDAY TIME AND IS FASTEST OVERRALL FOR THE REMINGTON PARK FUTURITY
OKLAHOMA CITY – April 5, 2020 – The majority of top qualifiers were from early trials on the card Saturday night for the restricted Grade 1, $891,900 Remington Park Futurity, until Dalts Fancy Pistol fired the shot heard round the track with an amazing win.
The 2-year-old filly had seen the fastest time of the night hold up from the first race when Jess is the Boss posted :16.738 for 330 yards. Then in the ninth race, Dalts Fancy Pistol said, “Hold my beer.”
The juvenile gray filly by Im a Fancy PYC, out of the Mr Eye Opener mare Dalts Pistol, left the starting gate like she’d been blasted from a cannon, stopping the timer in :16.576 over the fast track. Dalts Fancy Pistol, trained by Guillermo Valdivia, beat her trial field by 1-3/4 lengths for a speed index of 97. The second fastest of the evening was a 92. Rolando Raudales kept this filly in a straight line and knew immediately that he had no competition.
Raudales won last year’s biggest race at Remington Park, getting another Valdivia filly, Uptowne Babe, to the winner’s circle in the Grade 1, $1 million Heritage Place Futurity.
Owned and bred in Oklahoma by owners Larry Thompson and Don Anthony, Dalts Fancy Pistol had won her career debut against maidens at Remington Park on March 8 at 3-1 odds. She covered the 250 yards that night in :13.457 for a 73 speed index. She appears to be improving as she increased her winning speed index Saturday night in the trials by 24 points.
Here are the top five from Saturday night with jockey, trainer, owner, finishing time, speed index and number of trial:
1) Dalts Fancy Pistol, Rolando Raudales, Guillermo Valdivia, Larry Thompson and Don A. Anthony of Oklahoma City, :16.576, 97, trial nine.

The trials will be held in races four-through-eight.
The first trial, race four, will include last year’s Grade 1, $3 million All American Futurity winner Mr Jess Jenkins.
