WAYNE, OK—JULY 8, 2018—Third-crop sire Heart Of The Cartel got his first stakes winner on Saturday when Tres My Heart won the $50,000 Indiana Grand QHRAI Derby at Indiana Grand Racing & Casino.
Tres My Heart, making only her second career start, had a clean break from the gate and seemed focused from the start. The 3-yaer-old Oklahoma bred filly grabbed a short lead and became the horse that the rest of the field would have to catch in the final portions of the race. She completed the 400 yards in :20.020 seconds to pick up the winner's check of $27,500.
Trainer Hector Sanchez conditions the bay filly for owner Maria Chaparro. Canadian River QH's LLC bred Heart Of Cartel from the Tres Seis mare Famous Mariah.
