Bringonthewave soared to his third stakes victory in the $27,220 Alberta Bred Derby at
Century Downs on Sept. 22. With Ramiro Castillo in the
irons, Bringonthewave broke on
top and never looked back. At one point, the gelding had 1-length advantage. Gone To Be Bright closed some ground, but at the
wire Bringonthewave scored by 1/2-length. They completed the 400 yards in :20.257 on a muddy track.
James Doolin trains Bringonthewave for owner Dale Zukowski. Bringonthewave won the 2017 Alberta Bred Futurity-RG3 and the Jerry Stojan Memorial Futurity.
He also set a New Track Record at Century Downs for 400 yards.
Bringonthewave now has a race record of 13-7(3)-1-2 and the $12,373 winner’s share of the purse boosted his total earnings to $60,658.
