Breaking sharply from post two, Jess A Dash Of Class immediately seized command and never looked back, repelling a late challenge from Outlaw Jess to secure the victory.

The son of Jess Paint Me and the Maknmoves mare Josie Bassett now sports a record of 12-5-1-1 with earnings of $78,059. His biggest career score came in the 2024 Ron Cook Accredited Wyoming Bred Futurity.

One Seperate Eagle rallied from near the back of the pack to finish third, just a head behind the runner-up, while earning a 96 speed index. Dakota Wood rode the Robert Don Johnson trainee for owner Jack Greer.

Bred by Bielau Oaks, the son of One Fabulous Eagle out of the Separatist mare Separate Debt now owns a record of 19-2-1-7 with earnings of $32,876.
