Louisiana Juvenile Stakes
ONE HOT FLAME
by Danny Camp
One Hot Flame showed his class as he won the Louisiana Juvenile Stakes, a 350-yard contest for two year olds, at Delta Downs on July 9. The
field of ten lined up hoping to earn the first place money of $30,000.
One Hot Flame stepped away from the number three post and got the first call with Manuel Gutierrez aboard. The gelding went wire-to-wire and crossed the line 1/2- length in front to stop the clock at :17.595 for a speed index of 89.
The winner’s share takes his total earnings to $42,000, and he now has a race record of two wins out of three tries. In each race, One Hot Flame car- ried a different jockey.
Double H Racing Investment, LLC is the owner and Adrian Huitron is the trainer of One Hot Flame, who was bred in Louisiana by Margie Loup out of Rump Shakin.
The mare is a stakes winner and owns a 105 speed index. She has produced 100% money earners from four starters. One Hot Flame is her top money earner as well as her first stakes winner.
Zooboo (Coronas Leaving You-Zoobilee) rallied for second place money under J. Ramirez. His con- nections include owner Rosalio Espinosa and trainer Martin Trejo.

Live Oak Stakes
B AND G FAST DASH
by Danny Camp
The fastest way from one point to the next is a straight line. Horses and riders competing around the hook know that the fastest way to the finish line is on the rail. Competitors were looking for that straight line in the $50,000 Live Oak Stakes, which was contested at 870 yards at Delta Downs on July 9.
When B And G Fast Dash stepped away from the number two post, all was well. The 4-year-old gelding and rider Donald Watson gave an impres- sive performance, crossing the wire 5 1/2-lengths in front. They stopped the timer at :45.163, earning a speed index of 104.
With the $30,000 winner’s share, B And G Fast Dash has now earned a total of $116,470 and holds a race record of five wins from 17 outs for owner Oscar Rohne and trainer Kenneth Roberts.
B And G Fast Dash was bred in Louisiana by B&G Group Investments, Inc. and becomes the second stakes winner out of Rita Regent. The mare has produced five winners from seven starters, including her top earner multiple stakes winner La Mos Chingono.
Game On (Game Patriot-My Own Fortune)
and jockey J. Ramirez rallied late and were able to hold on for second place for owner Yamia Grillo and trainer Yoani Abreu.
Third place went to JLS Book Of Psalms (First Prize Perry-Psalmist), who ran a solid race for his connections that include owner JLS Speed Horse Ranch, Inc. and trainer Lanny Keith. Lucas Constantin was handling the reigns.
Dashing With Courage (Jess Louisiana Blue- Faith And Courage), Heza Fast Corridor (Heza Fast Dash-Classic Corridor TB), First Corona Prize (First Prize Perry-Raise A Corona), Rakin In The Jax (Rakin In The Cash-Alcohol And Ambiance) and Streak Of Music (Miracle Streak-Wire Me Music) completed the order of finish.
Flashy Hemp Stakes
OAK HILL STREAK
by Danny Camp
Louisiana bred fillies and mares three years and older took center stage at Delta Downs for the $50,000 Flashy Hemp Stakes on June 9.
Oak Hill Streak left the 5-post well and received the first call. The 4-year-old filly gained more ground the farther she went, taking jockey Gilbert Ortiz across the line 1 1/4-length in front. Oak Hill Streak stopped the clock at :17.337 for a speed index of 96 and a $30,000 first place check. Oak Hill Streak has now earned $116,610 with a race record of six wins from ten races, including her last three in a row. She also won this year’s Louisiana Purchase Stakes.
Oak Hill Streak is owned by Vanessa Bartoo
and trained by John Stinebaugh. The sorrel filly
was bred in Louisiana by Arnold J. Trahan out of stakes winner Streakin Amber, who won the 2006 Evangeline Downs Futurity. The mare has produced 100% ROM/money earners from her seven starters. Multiple takes placed Streakin Ellen is the top earner of the brood.
Scooter Prize (First Prize Perry-Royal Baby Scooter) was out of the gates well and, with a steady effort, was second to cross the wire. She is owned/ trained by Martin Trejo. David Alvarez was han- dling the reins.
First Kiss Jitter (Heza Fast Dash-Nancys Easy) had a late rally and was in third place at the finish. Her team consists of owner/trainer Bobby Martinez, and Damien Martinez had the riding assignment.
