PERRY FAST LIVED UP TO HER NAME, WINNING HERITAGE PLACE JUVENILE AT REMINGTON PARK
by Richard Linihan
OKLAHOMA CITY, OK – June 3, 2024 –Perry Fast gave trainer Eddie Willis his fourth win and Jimmy Brooks his third victory in the $100,000 Heritage Place Juvenile Stakes on Saturday at Remington Park.
The 350-yard race is for 2-year-old American Quarter Horses, who competed in trials for the Heritage Place Futurity but did not make the final event.
Willis won this event in 2001 with Oklahoma Horse Racing Hall of Famer Larry Payne in the irons for the first win in this stakes with Corona Royal. That got the ball rolling as Willis and Brooks then hooked up to win three together with A Fitting Way in 2009, followed by Good Captain Pepper in 2016 and then tonight with Perry Fast.
Perry Fast, a 2-year-old filly by Corona Cartel, out of the Tres Seis mare Miss Perrys Tres, broke on top from the gate under Brooks on the rail and never was headed to win by a half-length as the 5-2 second favorite in the wagering. She earned $29,070 from the purse for owner Buckway Ranch of Morgan, Utah, and improved to four starts, two wins and two seconds for a total bankroll of $46,493. The beaten 2-1 favorite, Miss Perrys Cowgirl, could do no better than fifth.
Perry Fast, bred in Oklahoma by Flag Ranch, paid $7.20 to win, $3.40 to place and $3 to show. She stopped the timer in :17.699 for a speed-index of 89 on the fast track. She beat runner-up Catchn Southern Rays (9-1) by a half-length and A Twisted Cowboy (9-2) in third was another head behind. The rest of the order of finish was BV Hello Goodbye (7-1) fourth, Miss Perrys Cowgirl (2-1 favorite) fifth, Axle D (17-1) sixth, A Higher Power (5-1) seventh, and Wilbarger (38-1) eighth.
It was the first win for Buckway Ranch in this series.
