AURORA, CO–SEPTEMBER 26, 2024–Barron Racing's Glittr Factory, a homebred daughter of Flare For Ivory and the fastest qualifier from five trials, heads a field of 10 juveniles entered back in Sunday's 330-yard, $83,500 Rocky Mountain Futurity at Arapahoe Park near Denver.

Glittr Factory broke her maiden with a three-quarter length win in the second trial on September 14. Jose Manuel Barron trains the filly.

Glittr Factory drew post five and will be ridden by Martin Lazalde.

Also, Just Run By and Smyly, a pair of stakes winners trained by Chris Gandarilla for owner Celenes's Racing LLC, will make their next start in Sunday's 350-yard, $70,300 Rocky Mountain Derby for 3-year-olds.

Just Run By made his sophomore season debut with a 1 1/2-length win in one of five trials on September 15. A $17,000 yearling purchase from breeder Dr. Steve Burns at the 2022 Los Alamitos Equine Sale, the gray Seperate Interest gelding has earned $39,430 from four races -- all at Arapahoe Park -- and his two wins include last year's 330-yard, $84,000 Rocky Mountain Futurity.

Just Run By drew post six and will be ridden by Edwin Escobedo.

Smyly is a bay daughter of Seperate Interest and a $23,000 yearling buy at the '22 Los Alamitos Equine Sale. The filly has won three of her seven outs, including last year's 400-yard, $83,000 Mile High Futurity at Arapahoe Park, and has banked $43,035.

Smyly drew post nine and will be ridden by Cordarelton Benn.
