DOUBLE CRUISE
by Danny Camp
Coming off of a victory in the Alberta Bred Derby, Double Cruise scored his third stakes win in
the $22,780 Canada Cup Derby at Century Mile on Oct. 25.
Ridden by Martin Ortiz, Double Cruise broke on top from the 6-post. Briefly falling into second, the gelding edged away from Getit Foose to cross the wire 3/4-length in front. They completed the 400 yards in :20.305, posting a 96 speed index.
Owned, bred and trained by Tom Kenway, Double Cruise brought home the $10,251 win- ner’s share of the purse, boost-
ing his total lifetime earnings to $53,010. He now has a race record
of 11-4(3)-3(1)-1(1). His other stakes appearances come from a victory in the Alberta Stallion Stakes Futurity, a second in the Alberta Stallion Stakes Derby and a third in the Evergreen Park Juvenile Challenge.
Tom Kenway bred Double Cruise out of winner Eye Cruise, who was third in the Manitoba Speed Horse Futurity. She has produced three win- ners from four starters. Double Cruise is her first stakes winner.
Getit Foose (Foose-Getit Together) ran a gritty race with D. Benitez aboard. The William Leech trainee is owned by Charles Stojan. The gelding finished fourth in the Evergreen Park Derby Challenge earlier this year.
Suits (First Timber-Burners Beauty) made up a lot of ground to secure third under J. B. Botello for owner/ trainer Wesley Oulton. The gelding has been a runner-up in many other stakes races, including the Alberta Bred Futurity-G3 and Alberta Bred Derby.
RJ Fly Bye (Special Fly Bye-RJ Bitterroot Babe), First Pulse (First Timber-Snowbound Star Lady), SS Frosty (Cuivre River-Zillas Amour), Tee For Teller (Teller Cartel-Feelin The Fever), Poutn And Streakin (Its All About Speed-Poutnlori), Movin Timber (First Timber-Wakeup Miss Moon) and Timbergold (First Timber-Gilded Gold) completed the order of finish.
