ROWDYSVISION
by Tracy Gantz
Rowdysvision earned a berth to the Adequan Derby Challenge Championship-G3 by capturing
the Aug. 7 Adequan Grande Prairie Derby Challenge. The colt was bred in Mexico and has done all of his rac- ing in Canada, so the Oct. 23 final at The Downs at Albuquerque could be Rowdysvision’s first start in the U.S.
A 19-1 longshot in the Adequan Grand Prairie Derby Challenge, Rowdysvision broke in third place from the seven-gate under jockey Alfredo Amador.
He battled with odds-on favorite Cerveza Corona throughout the 400 yards. Rowdysvision had a head lead at the first call and a head at the top of the stretch. Trained by Misael Moreno for owner/breeder Isaak Fehr, he just
edged out Cerveza Corona to score by a neck in :20.535.
Rowdysvision made his first three starts at Ajax Downs, breaking his maiden in his third start. In that
race, the sorrel colt broke well in the 300-yard event and easily won by 1 1/4-lengths to break his maiden in
his first trip to the winner’s circle. Rowdysvision made his first start in the trials to the Alex Picov Memorial Futurity. Despite a lackluster finish, he qualified to the finals where he finished in seventh-place in those.
Following his stint at Ajax, he fin- ished second and third in two allow- ance races at Century Mile.
Fehr bred Rowdysvision out of Vision My Corona and is the mare’s
first winner from two starters. Tempestuous Judy, Rowdysvision’s
fourth dam, was a stakes winner at Evangeline Downs.
Jockey Jose Rocha rode Cerveza Corona (Favorite Cartel-Corona Mas Fina) to a second place finish for owner Charles Stojan and trainer William Leech. Wesley Oulton bred, owns, and trains third-place Eyesa Timber (First Timber- Eyesa Perry). J. Botello rode the gelding.
Rounding out the field were Flight Club (Foose-Seperate Flight), Bright Foo Fighter (Gone To The Mountain-DJ Bright Sweetheart), Bright Ooh La La (Gone To The Mountain-Bright Apparition) and BDB Mach Man (BDB Iam A Tres Knud-Rapid Connection).
