I have a feeling when the list comes out…and it will, I will be losing friends. Don’t come asking for favors if you didn’t vote for a trainer that had it locked up before the last 3 months of the year or if you voted out of sympathy you need to step down. That vote disrespected every horse in the category just about…These are NOT participation awards. Sincerely, Tracy Taylor.

My power went out and came back on…I’m not nervous at all…

Longtime Director of Racing Chris Warren Embarks on a New Chapter

12/12/2023

Trane Station V capped off a lucrative weekend for his connections with his half-length victory in Sunday's Grade 1, $1,723,502 Los Alamitos Two-Million Futurity at Los Alamitos Racecourse.

Trained by Heath Taylor for owner Valeriano Racing Stables, Trane Station V covered 400 yards in :19.739 while recording a 91 speed index. Francisco Calderon rode the Favorite Cartel c**t.

Valeriano Racing Stables, Taylor, and Calderon also teamed up to win Saturday's $750,000 Champion of Champions with Flash Bak.

The fastest qualifier, Trane Station V was coming off of a 2 1/2-length win in the sixth of 14 Los Alamitos Two-Million Futurity trials on November 19. The c**t was bred in California by Dr. Steve Burns, and he was purchased by Valeriano Racing Stables for $130,000 at last year's Ruidoso Select Yearling Sale. Trane Station V is out of Attack The Cartel, a stakes-winning 14-year-old daughter of the Holland Ease stallion Corona Cartel, and he is a full brother to 2020 Evangeline Downs Futurity (G3) winner Rumor Goin Round.

Trane Station V's second dam, the winning Separatist mare Separate Tac, ran second in champion Strawkins' 2006 Rainbow Derby (G1) at Ruidoso Downs. His third dam, the winning First Down Dash mare Ought To Be Famous, produced I Ought To Be First, a Grade 3-winning half brother to Separate Tac.

Raced in two states, including New Mexico, Trane Station V has won six of nine starts, and the $738,643 winner's share of the purse from his second stakes victory increased his earnings to $1,754,152. The c**t's four wins in four races at Los Alamitos include a 1 3/4-length victory as the fastest qualifier in the October 29, $988,000 Golden State Million Futurity (G1), and he became the first horse to win the both the Golden State Million and Los Alamitos Two-Million futurities as the fastest qualifier. During his summer campaign at Ruidoso Downs, Trane Station V ran second in two Grade 1 futurities, including American Quarter Horse racing's richest race, the September 4, $3-million All American Futurity.

Five Bar Supreme finished second and was followed by Optical Illusion, Checkn Cartel, Apollitical Open MRL, Unrelentless, Southern Divine, AB Wow, and Think Again Kev.

Also on Sunday, Politiko scored a neck victory in the 400-yard, $50,000 Los Alamitos Two-Million Juvenile Stakes. Ridden by Eduardo Nicasio for owner Edward B. Melzer Revocable Trust, and trainer Eddie Willis, The Texas-bred Favorite Cartel c**t posted a 91 speed index while making his trip in :17.716.

Trane Station V on Sunday set the fastest qualifying time to the October 29, $988,450 Golden State Million Futurity (G1) at Los Alamitos Racecourse.

Trained by Heath Taylor for owner Valeriano Racing Stables, Trane Station V won the 10th of 13 400-yard trials by 2 3/4 lengths in :19.742. Francisco Calderon rode the son of the Favorite Trick (TB) stallion Favorite Cartel.

Trane Station V was purchased by Valeriano Racing Stables for $130,000 at last year's Ruidoso Select Yearling Sale. The c**t was bred in California by Dr. Steve Burns, and he is out of Attack The Cartel, a stakes-winning homebred daughter of Corona Cartel and a finalist in the 2012 Southern California Derby (G1). His second dam, the winning Separatist mare Separate Tac, ran second in champion Strawkins' '06 Rainbow Derby (G1) at Ruidoso Downs.

Trane Station V was shortening in distance off of his second-place finish in the sport's richest race, the 440-yard, $3-million All American Futurity (G1) at Ruidoso Downs on September 4. All told, the c**t has won three of six races and has earned $608,400.

Second-fastest qualifier AB Wow won the third heat by 1 1/4 lengths in :19.937. Justine Klaiber rode the gelded son of champion Apollitical Blood for owners Jaime Bryant, Melanie Brooks, and Linda Joiner, and trainer Eddie Willis.

AB Wow was bred in California by Rancho el Cabresto Inc., and he was purchased for $100,000 at last year's Ruidoso Select Yearling Sale. The gelding is out of Shyann Cash, a stakes-winning and Grade 1-placed daughter of Takin On The Cash and a finalist in the 2003 Golden State Futurity (G1).

Raced in two states, including New Mexico, AB Wow has won two of four outs and has banked $13,400.

Keith Nellesen's Think Again Kev set the third-fastest qualifying time with his three-quarter length win in the fourth trial. Ridden by Jose Nicasio for trainer Heath Taylor, the gelded son of champion KVN Corona went 400 yards in :19.968 while earning his third win in five starts.

Think Again Kev was bred in Utah by McColee Land and Livestock LLC, and he is out of Budder Think Twice, a winning 10-year-old daughter of First Down Dash and the runner-up in the 2015 Governor's Cup Futurity (RG2) at Los Alamitos. The gelding has earned $47,018, and his early season record included a third-place finish in the May 14, 300-yard Robert Adair Kindergarten Futurity (G2).

Empressum, a homebred 5-year-old son of Apollitical Jess and the sport's reigning world champion, sprinted to a three-quarter length victory in Saturday's Grade 1, $125,000 Robert L. Boniface Los Alamitos Invitational Championship at Los Alamitos Racecourse.

Trained by Heath Taylor for owners Jeff D. Jones and Steve A. Holt, Empressum covered 440 yards in :21.257 while earning a 106 speed index and his eighth lifetime Grade 1 win. Rodrigo Vallejo rode the sorrel Oklahoma-bred gelding.

Empressum was stretching out in distance off of his second-place finish, a half of a length behind winner Scoops Dynasty, in the August 27, 400-yard Go Man Go Handicap (G1). Raced in four states, including Oklahoma and New Mexico, the gelding has won 22 of 30 starts -- including eight of 12 at the classic 440-yard distance -- and the $68,750 winner's share of the purse from his 10th stakes victory increased his bankroll to $1,834,294.

Apollitical Pence finished second and was followed by Bomb Cyclone, London Toby, Hooked N Gone, and Stuck In Probate.
