Speedhorse Paint & Appaloosa Futurity-G1
FABULOUS TURNPIKE APHA
by John Moorehouse
Fabulous Turnpike was one of the last horses bred by longtime Oklahoma horseman Nolan Pevehouse before he passed away in 2019. So
when the rookie Paint gelding won the $97,679 Grade 1 Speedhorse Paint & Appaloosa Futurity on July 24 at Fair Meadows, Ronnie Pevehouse couldn’t help thinking about his father and get- ting emotional.
As the younger Pevehouse explained, win- ning this race was one of the goals his father had for this horse.
“That’s one reason that makes it special,”
he said. “It’s always nice when a plan comes together and you’re successful in what you hope to believe in.”
The Estate of Nolan Pevehouse is the listed as the owner of Fabulous Turnpike, who now holds two wins in five career starts. The $37,118 payout from this event increased the gelding’s total earnings to $43,632.
Many of the horses bred by the Pevehouses have a name with some variation of the name
