Quarter Horse racing often means family, and that is certainly the case with Canadian Champion Destello De Luna. William Leech trains the gelding for his wife and daughter, Jane Leech and Haley Moreno. And to top it off, Haley’s husband, Ricardo Moreno, rode Destello De Luna throughout the year.
Bred in Alberta, Canada, by Ken McFarlane, Destello De Luna is by Lethal N First and out of the winning Toast To Dash mare A Mere Toast. The second dam, A Mere Fame, was stakes- placed at Los Alamitos.
Destello De Luna made all of his starts in his native country. He began at Century Mile, started twice at Grande Prairie, and finished the year back at Century Mile.
Destello De Luna improved throughout the year. He began with a second in his trial for the Alberta Stallion Stakes Futurity. In the 300- yard final, he was coming on late and nabbed third.
McFarlane had sold Destello De Luna to Jane and Haley for $4,400 at the 2020 Alberta Quarter Horse Racing Association Yearling Sale. Destello De Luna acquitted himself
