Eric Pineda’s Everybuddys Talkin, a
brown daughter of Gonna Ro Sham Bo, was a prompt 5-2 favorite in the March 31, 350-yard Sunburst Stakes (RG3) for New Mexico-bred 3-year-old fillies at Sunland Park.
Ridden by Raul Herrera for trainer Ricardo Armendariz and aided by a reported 14-mph tail wind, Everybuddys Talkin defeated Daddys Copy by a neck in :17.466. The $51,000 winner’s share of the $85,000 purse from her second career stakes victory pushed the filly’s earnings to $163,335 from nine starts.
Everybuddys Talkin was bred by Bauer Farm, LLC. The filly’s sire, Gonna Ro Sham Bo, is a 14-year-old gray son of Real Runaway and half brother to stakes winner Big Bang Zoom. Racing in 2006, Gonna Ro Sham Bo earned $118,336 from six starts and won that season’s Ruidoso Horse Sale Futurity (RG2) at Ruidoso Downs.
Gonna Ro Sham Bo has sired the earners
of more than $1.5 million from seven crops, including 2012 Zia Futurity (RG1) winner Gonna Cha Cha and graded stakes placed runners DM Ada Kat, Shes A Phoebe, and Kiki
Kiki. The stallion is owned by Leslie and Jinger Clemmer and stands at the Clemmers’ Glasses Creek Farm at Madill, Oklahoma.
Everybuddys Talkin is out of Kat Kora, a winning 12-year-old daughter of The Trader’s Echo (TB) and a finalist in the 2008 AQHA New Mexico Juvenile Challenge Stakes (G2) at Ruidoso Downs. The filly’s third dam, the winning Rime mare Blazin Rime, was a final- ist in three futurities during the ’98 season, including Cowgirl Cadilac’s Zia Futurity (RG2) at Ruidoso Downs.
Everybuddys Talkin traces back to her fourth dam, Logical Lark, an Oklahoma-bred daughter of 1979 world champion Moon Lark who won the ’89 Central Wyoming Fair Futurity.
Everybuddys Talkin has won two races, including the 400-yard, $206,853 Shue Fly Stakes (RG2) at Sunland Park in January.
Dolly Cartel finished third, a nose behind runner-up Daddys Copy. Cadilac Flash, Jessa Diva, Masons Moon, Regard The Rose, Frangelica, Flashininthefastlane, and Two Wines completed the official order of finish.
Daddys Copy is a homebred Big Daddy Cartel filly campaigned by Mac and Janis Murray’s MJ Farms of Veguita, New Mexico. Daddys Copy has won two of eight outs and has earned $64,601, and her race record includes a third-place run in the Shue Fly Stakes.
Dolly Cartel races for Fernando Rascon, who also bred the black daughter of Big Daddy Cartel. The filly has won one of six starts, and the $8,500 third-place share of the Sunburst purse pushed her bankroll to $28,500.
