All American Gold Cup-G1
ZOOMIN EFFORTLESSLY
By Tracy Gantz
About the only thing Zoomin Effortlessly hadn’t done during his career prior to the Sept. 4 All American Gold Cup-G1 was win at Ruidoso Downs. But he can be forgiven because prior to the Gold Cup he had never raced there.
After the All American Gold Cup, Zoomin Effortlessly had a spotless record at the track. Brothers Edelmiro and Santiago Carrizales collaborated on the victory, as Edelmiro trains the 5-year-old gelding for owner Telesforo Perrett and Santiago rode him.
Sent away as the 13-10 favorite, Zoomin Effortlessly dueled for the early lead with Bodacious Eagle in the 440-yard Gold Cup. Once he put away that rival, he simply kept increasing his advantage. Zoomin Effortlessly came to the wire a length ahead of Jessies First D D o o w w n n , , g g e e t t t t i i n n g g t t h h e e d d i i s s t t a a n n c c e e i i n n : : 2 21 1. . 0 0 9 91 1. .
Zoomin Effortlessly would have a nine- race winning streak through the Gold Cup
except for a positive test after finishing first in this year’s Remington Park Invitational Championship-G1. The gelding set a track record of :20.758 for 440 yards
in that race, but he was later disqualified and the track record disallowed.
Edelmiro Carrizales wasn’t training Zoomin Effortlessly at the time. “I don’t know what happened,” said the trainer. “I got him back after that race and took him to Retama and kept him there for a couple of months. And then I told my brother that, hey, he deserves to run over here in this race in New Mexico. So, we planned on this race.”
Zoomin Effortlessly began his winning streak in an allowance race at Sam Houston
in mid-2015. During 2015 he added three stakes at Retama and the Refrigerator Handicap-G1 at Lone Star Park. He started
this year by scoring in the Championship at Sunland Park-G1 and the Leo Stakes-G1 at Remington. In the 2015 TQHA Sires Cup Stakes at Retama, Zoomin Effortlessly set
a New Track Record of :19.493 for 400 yards.
Tommy Charbula bred Zoomin Effortlessly in Texas, and the gelding
won his first three races
for the breeder. Edelmiro Carrizales claimed Zoomin
Effortlessly for $10,000 at Lone Star in late 2014 from owner Pamela Stone. The gelding
Ruidoso Downs $200,000 440 yards :21.091 si 99
