POLITICAL ROSE HAD SWEET AROMA OF A WINNER AS FASTEST QUALIFIER ON NIGHT TWO OF HERITAGE PLACE FUTURITY TRIALS
OKLAHOMA CITY, OK – May 10, 2021 – LS Jacks Back looked like a prohibitive favorite for the Grade 1 $1,244,980 Heritage Place Futurity when he was the fastest qualifier Friday night, but in Saturday’s trials, Political Rose bloomed magnificently to make the finals competitive.
The lucrative Heritage Place Futurity will be contested as the headline event on the final evening of the Remington Park season, Saturday, May 29.
LS Jacks Back won his trial with a 16mph headwind in :17.861 on Friday while Political Rose caught the attention Saturday with a time of :17.951 while racing into a 20mph headwind. LS Jacks Back won by three lengths in his 350-yard trial while Political Rose won by 2-3/4 lengths.
The second-fastest qualifier Saturday was deceptively important to note as AJs Tres of Paint won his trial into a virtual hurricane, going :18.015 while racing into a 24mph squall. He won by 2-1/4 lengths.
Three-time defending champion rider James Floreswas aboard the fastest of the night when he booted home Political Rose for trainer Monty Arrossa and owner Dunn Ranch of Wynnewood, Okla. The 2-year-old daughter of Apollitical Jess broke third from the gate but quickly went to the lead and began to draw away with each stride. The bay filly is out of the Carters Cartel mare Cartel Rosie and was bred in Oklahoma by Stone Chase Stables.
Political Rose is now two-for-three lifetime, her only loss coming in the Remington Park Futurity trials when she swerved in at the start of her career debut race and was bumped hard. She still was able to get fourth, beaten less than a length after the mishap. Political Rose had no such trouble Saturday night and earned $8,784 for the trial win, boosting her career earnings to $22,652. The even-money favorite, Entycing, got up for second and was another head in front of third-place finisher Helllo (5-1).
Political Rose was picked up at the Ruidoso Select Yearling Sale last year for $57,000. AJs Tres of Paint is also by Apollitical Jess. The producer of two All American Futurity winners also was represented in Friday’s qualifiers with Sassalitical. Apollitical Jess threw both Apocalyptical Jess and Mr Jess Jenkins, winners of the sport’s greatest race – the All American.
Political Rose paid $7.40 to win, $3.20 to place and $2.40 to show.

A message from Dr.Heidlage: For the final weekend of races there is an over abundance of haul ins each day. I would appreciate your cooperation in arriving early to the haul in barn. Both the Cherokee barn and D1 will have to be used. Anyone assigned stalls in D1 will need to be in place by 8 am. Anyone in the Cherokee barn has to be in their assigned stalls by 9 am not on your way to the stall. If you arrive at the stable gate at 9 am you will be considered late and subject to fines or scratches. This will be the largest number of horses in per card for the entire meet. Please keep this in mind. We will all have to make concessions to make this work. Jock agents please make your haul in trainers aware of this. Thank you. ... ’Expand’See Less
