AJAX, ONT—JULY 30 2017—Late speed under jockey Julian Serrano boosted Ls Prince to a one-length win in the first of two trials on Sunday for the Adequan Ajax Derby Challenge at Ajax Downs.
The son of Louisiana Senator posted a :20.350 clocking into a 7 mph head wind, a 90 speed index, to set the top qualifying time.
The 10 fastest qualifiers will return to Ajax Downs on Saturday, August 19 to vie for the winners' share of a $20,000-addded purse going 400 yards. Also at stake is a starting spot in the $180,000 Guaranteed Adequan Derby Challenge Championship (G3) October 14th on Bank of America Challenge Championship night at Prairie Meadows.
Ls Prince, a Texas-bred from the Sixarun mare Princess Sixarun, picked up his third career win in seven starts. Bred by Paris Wixon, the bay gelding has banked $8,840.
In the second trial Pascoe and Kwiecien teamed again with Maryland Magic, a colt by leading sire Pyc Paint Your Wagon from the All Mitey Dash mare Purley Un Social. Runner-up in the AQHA Maiden Stakes at Ajax on June 18, Maryland Magic completed the 400 yards in :20.470 seconds to secure the second fastest qualifying time.
Ramiro Castillo rode the colt to his second win in 11 starts, boosting his earrings to $20,160. Stephen Harris is the breeder.
