GRAND PRAIRIE, TX–SEPTEMBER 23, 2024–Hes A Jet One, a graded stakes winning son of EC Jet One racing for Pete Scarmardo of Caldwell, Texas, is one of seven Texas-bred sprinters entered in Friday's 400-yard, $50,000 B.F. Phillips Jr. Stakes (RG3) at Lone Star Park.

Hes A Jet One has won his last two starts, both against state-bred stakes company, including the 400-yard, $67,000 TQHA Classic Stakes (RG2) at Retama Park on July 26. The gelding has won four of his five outs at Lone Star Park.

Hes A Jet One drew post four and will be ridden by Ali Rivera for trainer John Stinebaugh.
